King's Ginger is made from a distillate of macerated ginger root and lemon peel and was first launched in 1930s but benefitted from a packaging facelift...
I opened a new bottle last night and was so, so disappointed. I used to enjoy my King's Ginger as a liqueur over ice or neat, a treat on a winter's evening for sure. New bottle looks beautiful (nothing wrong with the old one though!) but gone is the glorious warm ginger and citrus taste that was beautifully balanced by the smooth honey. Instead, it was like drinking a ferocious ginger toddy designed to clear your nose and burn your throat!. Will definitely NOT be buying another bottle.
