Hayman's Royal Dock Navy Strength Gin 114 Proof

Hayman’s Royal Dock Navy Strength Gin is a 114-proof (57% ABV) high-strength London gin from the Hayman family — the same bright, robust gin Hayman’s forebears have supplied to the British Admiralty and the trade since 1863. The family historically delivered to the Royal Dock of Deptford, the largest of the three Admiralty Victualling Yards. From the 10 Hayman’s botanicals, Royal Dock emphasizes angelica and coriander for pepperiness and licorice root for a creamy texture, producing a structured Navy Strength expression.

“Navy Strength” refers historically to gin at 57% ABV or higher — the strength at which gin would still allow gunpowder to ignite if spilled, the original Royal Navy threshold for accepting on-board spirits. Modern Navy Strength gins deliver intensified botanical character and structural backbone in cocktails. Five generations of Haymans have championed the True English Gin style with classical balance.
