Plymouth Gin Navy Strength
NAVY STRENGTH | 57% VOL
Gin had to be Navy Strength as it was stored next to the gunpowder below deck. A lower alcohol percentage like the today’s original with 41,2% would damage the gunpowder if it was to leak on the gunpowder. The Navy Strength with 57% is a flammable liquid and would therefore not damage the gunpowder. These days, no self-respecting bartender would omit it from their arsenal either.

KEY SERVE

THE GIMLET

A fresh, simple and now popular take on the classic Plymouth Gin cocktail created by the British Royal Navy in the 1800s. Originally a combination of Plymouth Gin and Rose’s Lime Cordial (taken on-board ship from 1867 to prevent scurvy). The Gimlet migrated to cocktail bars; where Plymouth Gin and Rose’s Lime Cordial were stirred down and served ‘up. Today, homemade cordials or this fresh version are the GO!
