Eleonora's Liquid Low-Down
"Never Never Southern Strength was created by bartenders with cocktails in mind and is an overproof gin, meaning it has a higher alcoholic strength than your average classic London Dry gins. It consistently collects gold medals thanks to its triple juniper process and aromatic flavour profile, making it ideal for creating classic gin cocktails."

This overproof London Dry gin comes in at a powerful 52% ABV. Just 5% short of being a Navy Strength gin, it doesn’t hold back on flavour! You’ll experience a strong, juniper-driven journey from the nose to the palate, with warming notes of pine and mellow angelica. I love the tingling peppery feeling and citrus and cinnamon flavours that dance in your mouth after the first sip. |
 |
Never Never Southern Strength was, quite simply, created by bartenders to be enjoyed at any occasion that calls for a gin-based cocktail! |
 |
Its strong juniper and citrus-forward notes offers beginners the opportunity to explore more robust flavours in classics such as G&Ts and Martinis, and also make it a loyal ingredient for expert gin drinkers and bartenders to mix into more complex cocktails. |
How to Drink
 |
A classic Martini is the best way to enjoy such a full-bodied and juniper-forward gin, when mixed with a touch of vermouth, served very cold and straight up. Don't forget to store the bottle in the freezer if a Martini is your go-to and top it with a lemon peel, olive or pickled onion. Alternatively, it works perfectly for a G&T, using either classic or Sicilian lemon tonic water. Let the bubbles play with the juniper for a moment, then sit back, relax and enjoy it. |
 |
For your G&T or Martini, always use ice. Depending on your preference, use big or small cubes. Large ice cubes are good for stirred drinks and small ice cubes are good for shaken drinks. |
 |
Highballs and rocks glasses with large, cubed ice to give you plenty of dilution are perfect for G&Ts and Negronis, whilst Coupettes or Martini glasses and smaller ice cubes for shaking or stirring work best for Martinis. |
 |
I like to cook with spirits and Never Never Southern Strength is the perfect gin for curing salmon and dressing oysters, to give them a juicy juniper and citrus kick! When pairing your cocktails, a gin and tonic pairs well with salmon sandwiches and burgers. The bubbles mixed with the juniper and the Australian native pepper berry will keep your palate fresh and clean, ready to enjoy every bite of your dish. |

About Never Never
Never Never Distilling Co. is the story of three people with a passion for flavours, having a serious go at creating Australia’s most exciting and innovative gin brand.
A laser-focus on flavours is why its spirits are loved by bartenders, gin drinkers and competition judges alike. They make juniper the hero to create full flavoured, London Dry style gins perfect for G&Ts and classic cocktails.
A triple juniper process is central to Never Never’s recipes. Their Juniper is firstly steeped for approximately 24 hours. This steep, along with fresh juniper is then added to the still prior to pot distillation. Lastly, more juniper is added to the vapour basket to capture the fresh and floral juniper character. Never Never’s eight other botanicals include coriander seed, angelica root, orris root, lemon peel, lime peel, liquorice root, cinnamon and Australian pepper berry.
Its spirit of adventure is inspired by the Never Never - the vast Australian expanse beyond the horizon. To step into the Never Never is to journey into the unknown.

Southern Strength Gin Cocktails
A classic Martini is the best way to enjoy such a full bodied and juniper forward gin. It's at its best when it's served straight up and as cold as you can get it. Store the gin bottle in the freezer and put your vermouth, glass and mixing glass or cocktail shaker in the fridge one hour in advance of creating this cocktail.
Never Never Southern Strength works perfectly for bringing character to your G&T. Choose a good quality tonic water with well balanced quinine and citrus notes (my favourite is 1724 from Chile, the birthplace of quinine), or opt for Sicilian lemon tonic water. You'll taste juniper and pepper on your palate and warming cinnamon to finish.
The White Lady is an authentic gin master drink. It's great for any occasion and a great show of your bartending skills.
This gin and ginger recipe is one of Never Never Southern Strength's signature serves. It's a perfect cocktail for appreciating citrus-forward gin styles that can stand up to the intensity of quality ginger beer.
