Annika Svensson VIPsAllowed — Orange Peel Richness
8/10

The sweet orange citrus is amplified beautifully at 57% ABV. Combined with resinous juniper, earthy angelica, and warm coriander, the result is a full-bodied gin with a bright citrus tail on the finish.

7/10

Plymouth Navy at 57% ABV is too powerful neat. The resinous juniper, earthy angelica, and broad botanicals are all present but the alcohol heat is distracting. In a cocktail it's brilliant; on its own, it's a challenge.

9/10

Plymouth Navy at 57% is incredibly silky despite the strength. Rich deep juniper, earthy angelica, sweet orange citrus, and warm baked-spice coriander. The long warming finish with persistent juniper and sweet spice is outstanding.
