Hernö Navy Strength Gin
A Navy Strength, small batch gin from the Swedish distillery Hernö. Navy Strength means that gunpowder would still ignite if some of the high-strength gin was spilt on it. Not sure how much gunpowder a Swedish artisan gin distillery is going to come into contact with, but it's still a fantastic gin!
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Fresh as a huge bundle of daisies, although we didn't smell any daisies. We would have changed it to "Fresh as a big bundle of pine trees and herbs", but that doesn't make much sense.
Palate
For a Navy strength gin, it's surprisingly mild, certainly milder than the regular Herno Dry. It's geared much more towards a creamy, vanilla taste.
Finish
A modern, tasty gin from a cold country that would greatly suit a warm day.
