Las Vegas Distillery will host its first-ever Gin Week from March 18-22, 2026, in Henderson, Nevada’s Booze District. The five-day celebration will feature the release of a limited-edition Navy Strength Gin bottled at 114 proof, alongside special tours, cocktail classes, and live entertainment.
The distillery’s new Navy Strength Gin is bottled at 57% ABV, a significant step up from its standard gin’s 47% ABV. Only 96 bottles will be available, priced at $49.99 plus tax.
“Some of our gin lovers were asking for a higher proof than our 47%, so we crafted a traditional Navy Strength Gin at 57%, a whopping 114 proof,” said Master Distiller Jonny VerPlanck. “With just 96 bottles, this batch will surely go quick!”
