Gin description
We make our base spirit from unmalted barley and oats blended with malted barley, using a traditional infusion mashing process to convert the starch in the grain into sugars. The clear wash, containing the sugars is then collected and fermented off the grain. Once the yeast has done its work and all the sugars have been converted to alcohol its then distilled a minimum of 3 times. Finally the spirit is vapour infused with botanicals in our conical Carterhead. Our carefully selected blend of unmalted cereals and malted barley produces a dry spirit with a distinct grain character. The perfect backdrop for a big New World gin bursting with botanicals. Inspired by our love of gin and all things aniseed, Evolution takes gin to a new level. We combine juniper and a traditional gin botanical base with a blend of aniseed flavoured ingredients including home grown fennel and Australian aniseed myrtle to open up a new dimension of cocktails.
