The Copeland Gin folks have created a Navy strength, cask-aged gin named after John Paul Jones, a well-known naval commander from the American Revolutionary War. The gin was first aged in Kentucky Bourbon casks for 120 days, before being moved over to Oloroso sherry casks for another 20 days, and then bottled at 57% ABV.
Citrus and dried fruit sit up front, followed by piney juniper, pink pepper and a touch of toffee.
Outstanding addition to The Copeland Distillery's collection! Drink neat over ice, (be careful mind, it's strong!) or with a twist of orange peel and Indian Tonic Water. Recommended!
Never thought I'd drink gin neat! Amazing favours enjoyed slipping over ice, just remember it's 57%, you wouldn't think it!
