Plymouth 57% ABV ABV Black Friars Distillery, Plymouth

Orange Peel Richness
The sweet orange citrus is amplified beautifully at 57% ABV. Combined with resinous juniper, earthy angelica, and warm coriander, the result is a full-bodied gin with a bright citrus tail on the finish.

Needs Dilution
Plymouth Navy at 57% ABV is too powerful neat. The resinous juniper, earthy angelica, and broad botanicals are all present but the alcohol heat is distracting. In a cocktail it's brilliant; on its own, it's a challenge.

Full-Bodied and Silky
Plymouth Navy at 57% is incredibly silky despite the strength. Rich deep juniper, earthy angelica, sweet orange citrus, and warm baked-spice coriander. The long warming finish with persistent juniper and sweet spice is outstanding.

Baked-Spice Coriander
At 57% the coriander takes on a warm, baked-spice quality that's really appealing. Combined with rich deep juniper, earthy angelica, and sweet orange peel, Plymouth Navy is a gin of proper depth and character.

The Original Navy Gin

Angelica Earthiness
The earthy angelica comes into its own at 57% ABV. It provides a savoury depth that balances the sweet orange peel and resinous juniper perfectly. The Plymouth style — full-bodied, silky — is enhanced, not overwhelmed.
