Sweden-based distiller Smögen Whisky has launched a new London dry gin that is potentially the strongest available in the UK.
Strane is a handcrafted, small-batch gin created by blending juniper, citrus and herbal bases. The new 75.3% alcohol by volume (ABV) Uncut variety joins the company’s existing portfolio of gins, including the 47.4% ABV Merchant Strength and 57.1% ABV Navy Strength.
Rich in juniper, lemon peel, sage and mint, it has now been made available in the UK for the first time, retailing for £58.45. Its UK importer has claimed that it is the highest proof gin available in the UK market.
Robert Ransom of Highfern said: “Strane Uncut is not an everyday gin, but a remarkable experience for serious gin lovers, and a marvellous addition to the Strane London Dry Gin family.”
