Darnley’s Spiced Gin: Navy Strength Edition
From: Darnley’s Gin
Our Navy Strength edition of our award-winning Spiced Gin was inspired by the Royal Navy career of our ancestor Sir Rosslyn Wemyss. During his time at sea, ships’ officers still enjoyed a daily ration of gin which had to pass a gunpowder test to prove it was over 57% alcohol and therefore Navy Strength. Using the same botanicals as Darnley’s Spiced Gin, we have added more juniper to our recipe and increased the proof to bring you a bold Navy Strength gin.
| ABV: | 57.1% |
| Nose: | Clementine, nutmeg, spruce, cinnamon, freshly grated black pepper. |
| Palate: | Ginger, citrus with a sweet and fresh character. |
| Finish: | Cinnamon, ginger, rich fruit, milled pepper and orange rind mixes well with the spice. |
| Serve: | Serve with a good quality tonic and red grapefruit slice. |
