All the way from Australia comes Never Never Distilling Co.'s Southern Strength Gin, made in the same way as the distillery's Triple Juniper Gin, but bottled at a robust 52% ABV. Juniper finds its way into the gin in three ways - it steeps in the spirit for 24 hours, fresh juniper is added when the spirit is redistilled, and juniper sits in the vapour basket in the still too. Eight other botanicals also appear in the gin, including Australian pepper berry, cinnamon and lemon.
Big, powerful notes of peppery, oily juniper, with growing heat of cinnamon and coriander.
