Tasting Notes

Nose

Intense juniper with prominent herbal coriander — lemon citrus more concentrated at proof

Palate

Packs a punch — juniper first, then thick spicy pepper and cardamom, woody pine, remarkable concentration of botanicals in 100-litre batches

Finish

Long and flavoursome — botanicals in harmony for a final encore, white pepper, then juniper flourish

First Impressions

NB Navy Strength takes the World's Best London Dry recipe and distils it at 57% in the same 100-litre batches from their North Berwick 'kinky' still. The additional strength amplifies every botanical — particularly the juniper, cardamom and pepper that define NB's character.

Tasting

The nose is intense juniper with coriander and lemon. On the palate, a punch of juniper then thick pepper-cardamom-pine spice. The finish is long with botanicals in harmony — pepper then juniper flourish.

The Bottom Line

NB Navy earns an 8 for the World's Best London Dry at naval power. The 100-litre batch size ensures craft intensity, and the Gold at Scottish Gin Awards confirms the quality. Everything that makes NB exceptional, amplified by proof.
