Imagine the botanicals as components in an orchestra; here we have taken the lead instrument, juniper, and amplified its presence in the ensemble, then raised the decibels by increasing the proof alcohol. The result is our very own symphony in ‘J’ major.
A desire to create the ultimate gin for juniper lovers took us on a mission to distil a ‘Very Junipery Over Proof Gin’. When increasing the flavor profile in a gin (in this case, juniper), it is essential to match it with a rise in ABV. At 57.7% ABV this juniper-forward navy strength gin uses double the amount of juniper berries as our London Dry Gin, and undergoes a three-part juniper-infusion process, including a three day maceration.
Our V.J.O.P. Gin was created for those looking for the ‘ginniest’ gin you can find. It’s perfect in a G&T with Mediterranean Tonic, or in classic cocktails such as a Martini, Aviation or in a twist on the classic Mint Julep.
THE NOSE
Junipery pine and cedarwood dominate with hints of zesty orange.
THE PALATE
Big juniper upfront with rich spice and notes of dark chocolate.
THE FINISH
Long and dry with a lovely balance, letting the juniper shine through.
