- Description
- This 1970s bottling of Plym Dry Gin from Coates & Co reflects Plymouth style's historical identity—a botanical-forward, slightly oily spirit distinct from London dry conventions. Juniper leads with earthy, herbal complexity and subtle citrus brightness, underpinned by the broader botanical base characteristic of the style. The 46% strength carries warmth and presence on the palate. A vintage example for gin historians and those curious about pre-modern gin expression.
