Gustaf opens with layered aromas of lavender, juniper, and honeysuckle, accented by a hint of citrus reminiscent of yuzu or lime. Spicy and expansive on the palate, it finishes with notes of white pepper and licorice, offering a zesty, lingering expression of earth and sea. At 114 proof, this navy-strength gin holds a storied place in British naval history. The daily ration of gin or rum was permitted on board only if its proof was high enough to ensure that, even if it soaked the gunpowder, the powder would still ignite.
