Beefeater Crown Jewel Gin
From: Beefeater
Gin Guild Founder member The House of Beefeater is proud to unveil the much-anticipated return of Beefeater Crown Jewel – the pinnacle of their gin collection.
Inspired by the iconic jewels housed in the Tower of London, this modern re-imagining of a rare gem embodies London’s timeless spirit.
Treasured by bartenders worldwide, Beefeater Crown Jewel is an elevated version of our signature house style; the addition of refreshing grapefruit and boldly heightened 50% strength (in comparison to Beefeater London Dry Gin) resulting in a perfectly balanced gin, with clarity of flavour and unmistakeable depth.
Captured in a ruby inspired bottle, this versatile liquid delivers an expression that is multi-faceted in its appearance and possibilities.

| ABV: | 50% |
| Nose: | Confident juniper and citrus aroma. Full, rounded and encompassing. |
| Palate: | Fresh grapefruit-led citrus at the start leads to the bolder kick of classic juniper at the crown. A long progression of warm spices and a hint of liquorice sweetness finish with a reminder of deeper citrus notes. |
| Finish: | The botanicals are beautifully balanced providing long, complex flavours that excite the palate through to the finish. The higher alcohol strength of 50% ABV. does not deliver any alcohol burn on the palate but instead supports and lifts the delivery of the ten botanicals. |
| Serve: | Martini |
