Plymouth Navy Strength Gin in a Nutshell

Historically, Plymouth Navy Strength Gin was the spirit of choice for the British Royal Navy, and for good reason: its 57% ABV ensured that if it spilled on gunpowder, the powder would still ignite. This potent ABV also amplifies its distinct botanical profile, making it a robust and flavorful foundation for any cocktail that calls for craft spirits.

Anders' Take on Plymouth Navy Strength Gin

"Plymouth Navy Strength has the classic Plymouth Gin flavor at a higher proof. It's got a rich texture with a citrusy, peppery kick that I really enjoy."

Let's Answer Your Questions About Plymouth Navy Strength Gin

Where is Plymouth Navy Strength Gin from?

Plymouth Navy Strength Gin hails from the Black Friars Distillery in Plymouth, England, the oldest working gin distillery in England. This isn't some newfangled creation; it's a potent throwback, bottled at a hefty 57% ABV, a strength historically required by the Royal Navy to ensure gunpowder would still ignite if the gin spilled on it. The Plymouth Gin brand itself is renowned for its unique, slightly sweeter and earthier taste profile compared to London Dry styles, a classic that has been an essential component in countless cocktails for generations and remains a beloved choice for any serious home bar.

How should I use Plymouth Navy Strength Gin?

Plymouth Navy Strength Gin brings a robust, earthy juniper and bright citrus punch, thanks to its higher proof. This character really shines in classic cocktails where the gin needs to stand tall, think a gimlet or a bolder martini, making it a fantastic choice for your home bar when you want your craft spirits to make a statement.

What does Plymouth Navy Strength Gin taste like?

Expect a bold, fresh juniper aroma upfront, quickly followed by spicy coriander and bright cardamom. The first sip is a powerful, full-bodied experience with prominent juniper and zesty citrus, smoothly transitioning to a lingering, warm finish balanced by sweet orange and green cardamom.
