Ableforth's
Bathtub Gin Navy Strength
(0.75l,
57%*)
*please note that the ABV of this bottle may vary
Atom Drinks Group was founded in 1996 by Justin Petszaft who — while working on his PhD program in Physics — started working at a local Single Malt Whisky shop in the UK. He eventually acquired the shop and set about bringing the business online, expanding operations, and recruiting a few of his childhood friends to join him. The business has expanded to develop and market their own line of signature Spirits. Their award-winning brands include Abelforth’s, Darkness, Origin, and nearly a dozen other Spirits.
For some Spirits, making their dram "stronger" simply means adding less water to bring it to proof. And while Ableforth's Bathtub Gin Navy Strength does clock in at 57% ABV, they go the extra step of gently cracking the botanicals so that they have more exposure to the Spirit and infuse more flavor. And if you remember, they do a two-part infusion where the heat-tolerant flavors and aromatics are vapor-distilled while the more delicate ones are cold-steeped. The result is still their original, award-winning Bathtub Gin in its soul. But the flavor profile is bolder and richer on top of the higher ABV. It could actually be the first real "sipping Gin" we’ve had this year. It is astoundingly good all by itself.
Smartass Corner:
The term "bathtub Gin" came into use during Prohibition. It referred to small batch production of flavored Spirits using home-made equipment and improvised processes.

Few Gin distillers make their own alcohol. Gin usually starts with neutral Spirit: A commodity that distillers buy in bulk. It’s what the distiller does with this commodity in the flavor-infusing process that makes each Gin different.
London Dry Gin is not always from London. Gin does not have the same geographical restrictions as Spirits such as Cognac, Scotch, or Tequila. Only a tiny handful of London Dry Gins are actually made in the city.
Gin gets its dominant flavour from juniper berries. As with many other spirits, Gin was originally intended to be used as medicine. Yeah right!
As with many other Spirits, Gin was originally intended to be used as a medicine—to battle malaria.
Classifications of Gin: London Dry Gin, Plymouth Gin, Old Tom Gin, Genever or Dutch, New Western or new American or International style.
It’s a common myth that Gin is a tear-jerker. Of course, drinking too much of it will make you feel awful the next day, but that’s the same with any alcohol.
