A very snazzy bottle of The King's Ginger liqueur from Berry Bros. & Rudd, presented at the lower strength of 29.9% ABV. As the story goes, King Edward VII's doctor was concerned about the monarch, and in 1903 asked Berry Bros. & Rudd to create something to warm him – and so the liqueur was born. This is its modern take on the historical tipple! A suitably warming sipper, or a great addition to Scotch whisky cocktails.
A zip of lemon peel, with sweet candied ginger and fiery, drier root ginger on the finish.

As everyone else has stated, quite simply the worst reformulation of a previously delicious, winter-warming ginger liqueur. How to disenfranchise your entire (and loyal) customer-base. An extraordinary disaster in Brand management!
Not a patch on the original. They've ruined a classic.
Not only was the original recipe far superior to the new formula...the original bottle was unique and striking. It now looks like every other spirit/liquor on the shelves. I am trawling the Internet to find an original bottle!
Appalled at the taste of the new version. Calamitous recipe change, (cheaper to produce one suspects?), a reduced 29.9% means less duty incurred and therefore cost saving / price impact. A great drink ruined, loyal repeat customers alienated and Brand value trashed. Well done - how not to do it.
Used to be lovely, but new recipe is vile and fit only to pour down the sink. Ginger is so strong your mouth feels like you’ve eaten a Madras after drinking it. Horrible. Please bring back the old and far better recipe.
