The history behind calling a gin Navy Strength dates back to the 18th Century. In the British Navy, gin was stored on ships next to the gunpowder. Should the gin barrels spilt and get into the gunpowder, the higher alcohol content – minimum of 57% – ensured that the gunpowder was not destroyed, and would still explode.
