Dyfi Distillery Navigation Gin 57% abv 50cl
This Navy Strength Gin is an alliance between seafaring tradition and maritime botany, brought together through the medium of umami.
Hand-foraged coastal botanicals are combined with exotic overseas spices, before distilling with a combination of vapour infusion and pot immersion.
The distillate of umami-rich flavours and bracing freshness is then rested in an ancient canteiro Madeira barrel prior to release. Older Madeira barrels develop a lactone called sotolon which contributes an umami character to some of the most venerable Madeira wines. In our case, it binds together key botanical notes with the ageing vessel to create a completely unique gin.
57% alcohol by volume, non-chill filtered.

Dyfi Distillery Dyfi Distillery - Our location in the old slate mining village of Corris allows us to be very close to where so many of our botanicals are foraged. We distil in very small batches, using two small 100-litre stills. After looking at options from all over the world, our preference lay with a specialist still maker in Colorado. We further customized the stills after shipping, so we could challenge one or two conventions, whilst respecting the best of tradition. The result is what we call Precision-Distilling. We have developed and adapted techniques which allow for maximum control over maceration temperatures, variable copper contact for distillation and much more besides. Our stills can move from maceration- to distillation-temperature in an incredibly short time, which also contributes to optimum extraction of essential oils. |
