Fantastic gins.
Karen Bainbridge
We decided on their strawberry and mint gin, which turned out to be a great choice. The flavour is bold, smooth, and full-bodied— far superior to many commercial gins, where the flavours are often just a subtle hint.
Ian Chamberlain
Excellent gin and vodka, lovely family business!
Christopher Beck
Lovely Gin, looking forward to another afternoon in the garden with a Dragon Slayer.
Les Fry
Bought a bottle of the standard vodka although it’s anything but standard, at a whopping 40% it packs a smooth but robust flavour. The strawberry and mint gin is an absolute must… the quality of the drinks AND the bottles are amazing!
Rob Simmons
Amazing gin and vodka, so much better then the rubbish you find in supermarkets. I’ve never liked gin or especially vodka until I tried DragonSlayer

special gin & VODKA reviews
Two days before Christmas, we stopped by to purchase a bottle and was warmly greeted by the owner. He took the time to explain the gins and vodkas in detail, including the on-site production process.
We decided on their strawberry and mint gin, which turned out to be a great choice. The flavour is bold, smooth, and full-bodied—far superior to many commercial gins, where the flavours are often just a subtle hint.
The bottle itself is unique, featuring a solid steel stopper that reflects the company’s attention to detail.
This is undoubtedly a product and brand that deserves recognition and support.
Bought a bottle of the standard vodka although it’s anything but standard, at a whopping 40% it packs a smooth but robust flavour. The strawberry and mint gin is an absolute must! Again 40% so not skimping n the strength but the quality of the drinks AND the bottles are amazing!
So much thought has gone into this brand and its story, which can be seen in every detail from the name to the bottle. Drinking gin is an experience and all of those elements make a difference. Pouring myself a Dragon Slayer Gin feels special, not to mention, it tastes amazing, especially the rhubarb!
Excellent gin and vodka, lovely family business!
Lovely Gin, looking forward to another afternoon in the garden with a Dragon Slayer.

One of my favourite gins. Premium quality and great taste!
A new gin on the market and not one to be missed! This gin is a beautiful aromatic citrus flavoured gin. It has a clear, pure taste and quite frankly I prefer it without tonic as it’s that good!
A true delight on the palate. It’s the most moreish gin I’ve ever tasted!
My new favourite London Dry Gin - it tastes and smells amazing. I also love the bottle for gifts!
Dragonslayer get it right every time, the flavours are always so delicious. I love that they’re a family company too!
