Brutally Honest 52% ABV Gin: Bold and Refined

Brutally Honest 52% ABV Gin from I’ve Been Pickled delivers a bold, high-proof gin packed with refined flavours. At 52% ABV, this small-batch gin offers a robust drinking experience. Aged for over 14 months, it brings incredible depth and complexity, making it a must-try for gin enthusiasts.

Crafted from Fruit for a Smoother Finish

Unlike traditional gins made from grain or wheat, we craft Brutally Honest Gin entirely from fruit in-house. This fruit base creates a smoother, crisper finish, avoiding the harshness that often comes with stronger spirits. As a result, the gin has a clean, refreshing taste that’s perfect for sipping neat or over ice.

Enhanced Botanical Profile

We’ve refined the botanical blend of our flagship Honest Truth gin to create Brutally Honest. Thanks to its extended aging process, the juniper core is beautifully complemented by vibrant citrus zest, cardamom, and liquorice. Together, these botanicals create a rich, evolving flavour that excites the palate with every sip.

A Versatile, High-Proof Spirit

Whether you prefer your gin neat, on the rocks, or in a cocktail, Brutally Honest Gin shines in all settings. Its bold flavours pair beautifully with tonic, citrus garnishes, or other mixers, allowing you to explore its versatility. Furthermore, the high-proof ensures it stands out in any drink while maintaining an uncommon smoothness for spirits this strong.

Ideal for Gin Lovers

Brutally Honest Gin is the perfect choice for seasoned gin drinkers or anyone seeking a unique, premium spirit. With its bold character, smooth finish, and sophisticated botanicals, it consistently delivers an exceptional drinking experience.
