New Amsterdam Gin The Original 80 Proof offers a crisp, smooth experience that fits perfectly into lively gatherings or relaxed evenings at home. With an ABV of 40%, this American gin is crafted in the United States using a modern distillation process that emphasizes clarity and balance, making it approachable for both classic cocktails and creative mixes.

On the palate, New Amsterdam Gin reveals bright citrus notes layered with hints of juniper and subtle floral undertones.
