Consumption Excellent neat, with tonic or in classic cocktails
The higher strength, typical of the Navy style, is perceived as a lively but well-integrated warmth that supports the aromatic profile without overpowering it. Juniper remains the protagonist, supported by citrus suggestions and light spicy notes that emerge naturally; the result is a compact, vertical ensemble, with a pleasant sense of cleanliness that invites the next sip. While remaining intense, it maintains a good balance that makes it suitable both for bartenders and for those who enjoy it neat.

On the palate it shows body and structure, a roundness that does not sacrifice freshness nor salinity: the alcoholic warmth is firm but never harsh, and the persistence leaves bitter and citrus traces that lengthen the finish. It is very well suited to structured cocktails — a bold Gin&Tonic, a Martini that asks for character, or contemporary twists — but also stands up to neat tasting over ice; I recommend serving it slightly chilled with a large ice cube. To accompany it, flavorful charcuterie boards, smoked fish or aged cheeses are fitting pairings.
