Leopold Bros Navy Strength American Gin 750mL

In the 18th century, the Royal Navy rationed "proof spirits", later dubbed "navy strength", for their ships' crews. These spirits with ABVs exceeding 55%, were stored alongside gunpowder, and were intentionally kept at a higher proof to protect the powder from damage should the spirit leak from their barrels, and drench the munitions. Once fermentation of our house-made spirit is complete at our distillery, each ingredient is distilled individually. This practice expresses the character of each distinctive profile to create a commanding, aromatic 57% ABV gin honoring its maritime tradition.
