Leopold’s Navy Strength American Gin

When making a version of this maritime classic we distil each component including juniper and bergamot individually before bringing them together creating a bold and aromatic gin that will shine in any mixed drink. The term navy strength was bestowed by the british royal navy only on those gins high enough in proof to still render gunpowder flammable should it be drenched by the spirit. Today the hearty flavor and higher proof makes this an american gin that does not get lost in a gin & tonic. 57% abv 114 proof awards: gold medal (92 points) beverage tasting institute.
