Gordon's is a brand of London dry gin first produced in 1769. The top markets for Gordon's are (in descending order) the United Kingdom, the United States and Greece.〔http://www.diageo.com/en-sc/ourbrands/categories/spirits/pages/gin.aspx#gordons〕 It is owned by the British spirits company Diageo and is made in Scotland (although flavourings may be added elsewhere). It is the world's best selling London Dry gin.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.gordons-gin.co.uk/about/the-collection )〕 Gordon's has been the UK's number one gin since the late 19th century.〔(GREAT BRITISH BRANDS: Gordon's Gin - Dating from the late 18th century, the recipe for this iconic brand is said to be the same as it was 233 years ago | Marketing Magazine )〕 ==History== Gordon's London Dry Gin was developed by Alexander Gordon, a Londoner of Scottish descent.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.gordons-gin.co.uk/about/gordon's-timeline ) <--''Website requires registration, 23 Apr 2015.''〕 He opened a distillery in the Southwark area in 1769, later moving in 1786 to Clerkenwell.〔 The ''Special London Dry Gin'' he developed proved successful, and its recipe remains unchanged to this day.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 work=Gordons website )〕 Its popularity with the Royal Navy saw bottles of the product distributed all over the world. In 1898 Gordon & Co. amalgamated with Charles Tanqueray & Co. to form Tanqueray Gordon & Co.〔 All production moved to the Gordon's Goswell Road site.〔 In 1899, Charles Gordon died, ending the family association with the company.〔http://www.gordons-gin.co.uk/about/gordon's-history〕 In 1904 the distinctive square-faced, green bottle for the home market is introduced.〔 In 1906 Gordon's Sloe gin went into production.〔 The earliest evidence in recipe books for the production of Gordon's Special Old Tom is in 1921.〔 In 1922 Tanqueray Gordon & Co. was acquired by the Distillers Company.〔 In 1924 Gordon's began production of a 'Ready-to-Serve' Shaker Cocktail range, each in an individual shaker bottle.〔 In 1925 Gordon's was awarded its first Royal Warrant by King George V.〔 In 1929 Gordon's released an orange gin followed by a lemon variety in 1931. In 1934 Gordon's opened its first distillery in the USA, at Linden, New Jersey.〔 By 1962 at least it was the world's highest selling gin. In 1984 British production was moved to Laindon in Essex. In 1998 production was moved to Fife in Scotland, where it remains to this day.〔(Carbon )〕 From 2007-2011 then in 2014, British chef Gordon Ramsay was the face of Gordon's Gin. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Gordon's Gin」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
