Tasting Notes

Nose

Juniper star attraction with cascading zesty citrus — candied orange, whisper of pine and spice, gorgeously light and fragrant

Palate

Rich and creamy with no hint of burn — deliciously satisfying, waves of citrus backed by exhilarating underlying seaside freshness, juicy burst of fresh citrus

Finish

Waves of citrus going on forever — the 57% holding juniper better and enhancing every botanical, seaside freshness lingering

First Impressions

Brighton Gin Seaside Navy Strength takes the Pavilion Strength formula to 57% — enhancing juniper and amplifying botanicals. It scored 98/100 at IWSC 2022 (Gold Outstanding) and was named Navy Gin of the Year at the Craft Distilling Expo. A navy strength that drinks like silk.

Tasting

The nose is juniper with cascading citrus, candied orange and pine. On the palate, rich and creamy with absolutely no burn — waves of citrus backed by exhilarating seaside freshness. The finish goes on forever with citrus and enhanced juniper.

The Bottom Line

Brighton Seaside Navy earns a 9 for 98/100 at IWSC — near-perfect. The remarkable achievement is delivering 57% with no burn and a rich creamy mouthfeel. Navy Gin of the Year and one of the finest navy strengths we have reviewed. Best neat over ice or half-and-half with tonic and lime.
