How to get to us
We are a 12-minute walk from Balham station (Northern line, zone 3 Overground and Underground) or a 15-minute walk from Clapham South station (Northern line, zone 2 Underground).
First supplied to the English Admiralty in 1863, Hayman’s is still proudly making our Navy Strength Royal Dock Gin. The style is bright, bracing and smooth with a brilliant balance of juniper, coriander and citrus – without tasting at all overpowering.
Bottled at a traditional Navy Strength of 57% ABV, this hearty style of gin is suited perfectly to mixing a classic Pink Gin. Also wonderful in a traditional Gimlet, originally mixing the sailors’ daily tot of gin with the lime ration provided to fight off scurvy.
The bright flavours of citrus, juniper and coriander in Hayman’s Royal Dock make this gin the perfect match for spicy Indian food, as the robust flavours stand up well to the traditional Indian spices.
Enjoy this powerful gin in a bright and robust G&T or in a simply refreshing Gimlet with a slice of lime.
57% ABV
Available in 70cl.
