This Westbourne Strength gin from Martin Miller was created a few years after its original 40% version was released in 1999. The botanicals for both gins are the same, but the proportions differ. The gin is pot-distilled in England with two different distillations of the botanicals plus a wheat-based neutral spirit. The first is distilled after macerating the spices and earthy roots. The second is distilled with just the citrus peels. These two are blended together before a cucumber distillation is added. The gin is finally brought down to proof with Icelandic water, which in this case is bottled at 45.2% ABV.

Interesting. Citrus and juniper. Simple but has some depth and strong. I’m also getting some cucumber and spice and a bit of sweetness. Great to kick up a cocktail. Probably won’t purchase again, unless I need a overproof gin. I prefer Martin Miller’s Original
My top martini gin. I particularly like the peppery (to me) finish. I am not a big fan of the 80 proof which might be OK for some cocktails (non-spirit forward).
La meva segona ginebra preferida. Una passada.
A strong classic gin. High on my list
Love it
