Hayman’s Releases New Gin  

Distributed by: SouthTrade International

RRP: $90

Hayman’s Royal Dock Gin is available in Australia for the first time.

Royal Dock Gin represents the style of gin originally supplied by the Hayman’s family and previous generations under the mark ‘Senior Service Gin’ to both the Royal British Navy and the trade from 1863.

Based in London, Hayman’s delivered to the Royal Victoria Yard at the Royal Dock - the largest of the three Admiralty Victualling Boards.

Hayman’s Royal Dock Gin is a Navy Strength Gin, with an ABV of 57% - the strength required to enable gunpowder to still light if gin was spilt on it.

The name Royal Dock represents the yard established in 1513 by Henry VIII in Deptford, South London. Over four centuries, the Royal Dock - headquarters for the Navy Victualling Board who were responsible for the provisions on board, was a point of departure for some of the most significant ventures in British Naval history.

Tasting Notes:

A robust and bright profile with an enhanced citrus and floral aromatic nose from the navy strength. Smooth and intense, with a long refreshing and lingering finish.
