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.

Brought this for years and just finished our stash so tried this new version. Just dreadful and certainly won’t buy this. Please bring back the original recipe!!!
Used to love the King's Ginger. Always a lovely treat. I wish I had read these reviews before I thought the only change was the bottle. Nasty. Nasty. Nasty. What a shame
Perhaps I’m blessed with not knowing the former incarnation, but this makes REALLY nice cocktails.
This has to be one of the worst ever rebranding. The new recipe is a disaster. The former glory of King's Ginger has been eviscerated by some lunatic who must have no sense of taste. If you enjoyed (as I did) the previous formulation I advise you to stay away from this parody that masquerades as King's Ginger. Berry Brothers - I implore you to revert back to the previous wondrous formulation.
First taste at aged 39 a few weeks ago up a mountain the the Alps after a french skiers breakfast of pain au chocolat and croissant on the ski lift: it is throughly enjoyed by all, more so than Jäger although Jäger does have its time and place (after apres lunch).
