Base Ingredients

Method

Preparation

1

Infuse the Botanicals

In a large glass jar, combine the juniper berries, coriander seeds, angelica root, orris root, cinnamon stick, cardamom pods, dried lemon peel, and dried orange peel. Pour in the 1 liter of water, ensuring all botanicals are submerged.

2

Let it Steep

Seal the jar and let the mixture steep for 24 hours at room temperature. This process will allow the flavors of the botanicals to fully infuse into the water.

3

Prepare for Distillation

After 24 hours, strain the infused botanical mix through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth into a clean container, discarding the solid ingredients.

4

Combine with Neutral Grain Spirit

In a distillation apparatus, combine the infused liquid with 500 ml of high-proof neutral grain spirit. This will enhance the flavor profile while raising the alcohol content.

5

Distill the Mixture

Carefully distill the mixture, collecting the distillate in a separate container. Adjust the distillation process to achieve a high-proof spirit, typically around 57-60% alcohol by volume.

6

Bottle the Gin

Once distillation is complete, transfer the Navy Strength Gin into clean, sterilized bottles. Seal and label accordingly.
