Plymouth Gin Original Strength

Plymouth

What it does

Plymouth is the soft option on the gin side. It gives assertive partners like Antica, Suze, and Cynar room to speak instead of fighting them, which is why it turns up in the rounder Classic, the gentian White, and the Cynar mixes. Choose a firmer gin if you'd like the gin to lead more clearly.

In the family

Gins

The Classic's dry spine. Gin brings the botanical structure that keeps a Negroni clear and bitter instead of soft. Swap it out and you've usually changed families.

If you swap it

Beefeater London Dry Gin
Beefeater keeps the same gin job but gives the drink more bite and clearer gin structure.

What it opens up

Classic Negroni
Gin, Campari, sweet vermouth, equal measures. The one everything else is measured against.
White Negroni
The pale family. Gin, a pale bitter and aromatised wine, with room for sweetness as well as bite.
Cynar Negroni
Cynar takes all or part of Campari’s place. Another herbal bitterness, with gin and sweet vermouth.
