About Edinburgh Gin Cannonball
Edinburgh Gin Cannonball is a navy strength gin bottled at 57.2% ABV (100 proof), produced by Edinburgh Gin Distillery in the shadow of Edinburgh Castle and inspired by the city's naval heritage and the daily One O'Clock Gun tradition. What makes it special is its double juniper dose, punchy Szechuan pepper for a tingly spice, zesty lemon and yuzu citrus, creating an intensely flavored, powerful spirit that resurrects historic British Navy gin styles meant to withstand gunpowder. Ideal for bold gin enthusiasts, bartenders seeking a high-proof base for cocktails, or those wanting a warming sip neat or in a G&T on chilly evenings. In the navy strength category, it stands out for its Edinburgh-specific cannonball theme and balanced oriental spice against robust juniper, offering more subtlety than some ultra-spicy peers while rivaling classics like Old Raj in impact, though not overtaking top locals like Beast Gin. At $37.26 for 750ml from Park Street Imports, it delivers premium punch at competitive value[facts].
Tasting Notes
👃 Nose
Big, bold juniper dominates with background spicy notes of Szechuan peppercorns and oriental spices. Subtle citrus from lemon zest and yuzu adds freshness amid the heady aroma. Intensely flavorful, evoking a powerful blast true to its cannonball name.
👅 Palate
Twice the juniper of standard Edinburgh Gin delivers a robust, piney punch balanced by tangy lemon zest and zesty yuzu. Szechuan pepper brings a distinctive tingly spice and warming oriental notes, with citrus cutting through the high-proof intensity. Full-bodied mouthfeel coats vigorously, refreshing yet characterful.
✨ Finish
Very long and lingering with spiciness from Szechuan pepper persisting on the palate. Warming, drying spice fades into earthy herbaceous echoes.
