Hayman's Navy Strength Royal Dock Gin book or cinchona barkA robust navy strength gin from the Hayman family, whose forebears supplied a high strength gin to the Royal Navy's dockyard at Deptford from 1863, the strength ensuring gunpowder would still light if a barrel leaked. Bottled at 57%, it shows piney juniper, candied ginger and zesty lemon over nutty angelica. Big and punchy; superb in a Gimlet or a Martini. Thirsty for ideas?
