Garnish
Dehydrated Orange WheelPlymouth Navy Strength is the powerful 57% ABV version of Plymouth Gin, a historic style closely tied to British naval tradition. The gin keeps the Plymouth botanical identity with juniper berries, coriander seed, orange peel, lemon peel, green cardamom, angelica root and orris root, but the higher proof gives those botanicals more projection and energy. The result is not simply a hotter gin; it is a denser and more aromatic expression, built for dilution, classic cocktails and serves where the gin must remain visible.
On the nose, Plymouth Navy Strength opens with firm juniper, citrus peel and coriander, followed by cardamom and a rooty dryness from angelica and orris. The elevated alcohol amplifies the aroma, but the style remains smooth and balanced for its strength. In the mouth, the first impression is bold and warming, then lemon, orange and coriander spread through the middle. Cardamom gives a green spicy lift, while the roots create a dry backbone that keeps the finish clean rather than sweet.
This gin is excellent in a classic gin and tonic when the dilution is handled with care. Plenty of ice, a tonic with real bitterness and a simple orange or citrus garnish let the 57% structure relax without losing intensity. Plymouth Navy Strength is also a strong choice for cocktails such as a Gimlet, Martini or Navy-strength sour, where its botanical density can hold up against citrus or vermouth. The finish is long, dry and aromatic, with juniper, citrus and spice lingering after the heat has softened.
