Perry's Tot Navy Strength Gin
Navy Strength 57% ABV ABV New York Distilling CompanyHoney Overwhelms
The wildflower honey at 57% ABV is generous and distinctive but it makes the gin feel a bit sweet for a navy strength. The piney juniper and dried chamomile are lovely but the honey note dominates the finish for me.
Chamomile Surprise
The dried chamomile on the nose is an unexpected and lovely note. At 57% ABV the dense piney juniper is commanding, the honey adds sweetness, and the lemon zest provides essential brightness.
Sweet-Bitter Honey
The sweet-bitter honey interplay on the finish is what makes Perry's Tot special. At 57% ABV the dominant juniper provides structure, the star anise adds complexity, and the dry angelica root grounds everything beautifully.
Dense and Complex
Perry's Tot has remarkable density at 57% ABV. Every sip reveals layers — pine, honey, chamomile, star anise, cinnamon-cardamom. The long warming finish with dominant juniper and dry angelica is properly satisfying.
Honey and Juniper Interplay
The wildflower honey and piney juniper interplay at 57% ABV is extraordinary. Dense piney juniper, honeyed sweetness, restrained cinnamon-cardamom warmth, and star anise edge. The long warming finish is magnificent.
Star Anise Edge
The star anise edge on the palate adds a fascinating licorice-like quality at 57% ABV. Combined with dense piney juniper and wildflower honey, it creates a navy strength gin with real depth. The thick mouthfeel is impressive.

Perry's Tot at 57% is one of the world's great navy strength gins. The dense piney juniper, wildflower honey sweetness, restrained spice, and star anise create something unforgettable. The long, warming finish with sweet-bitter honey interplay and dry angelica root is perfection. A masterwork.
