Alcohol Content: Bottled at 55% ABV (110 proof), making it significantly stronger than standard gins.
Appearance: It has a pale yellow tint derived from the saffron infusion, rather than being clear.
Serving Recommendations
Due to its high proof, it is often used in spirit-forward cocktails where its intensity can hold up against other strong ingredients.
Martini: Often cited as one of the best for a classic Martini, specifically the Old King Cole style.
Gin & Tonic: Best served with plenty of ice and a high-quality tonic to open up the citrus and spice notes.
Negroni: The 110 proof ensures the botanical profile isn't lost when mixed with bitter liqueurs and vermouth.
Wine Enthusiast
The 55% abv blue label is one of the strongest and most expensive gins on the market. Look for the trademark faint yellowish-saffron tinge and herbal scent, with assertive pine and anise flavors and a tart lemony touch. Serve this overproof gin tamed with ice and lots of tonic.
