Kentucky Wild Gin Bourbon Barreled

Gin description

New Riff Distilling is pleased to release another member of our Kentucky Wild Gin family. Call it the older, wiser cousin: our usual house-distilled Kentucky Wild Gin, with the same ratio of classic and locally foraged gin botanicals, rested in freshly dumped Bourbon barrels. Seven months in our used O.K.I. Bourbon barrels have lent a subtle vanilla note to the proceedings, as well as a light golden hue. Try it in place of a whiskey in an Old Fashioned, or in its ultimate home: a Martinez cocktail. Nose: spicebush and vanilla oak form a tantalizing duo, while wood spices tangle playfully with local juniper. Palate: Subtle oak tannin serves to amplify the dryness from angelica; orange peel is a bit more prominent. Finish: lovely angelica dryness, continued orange peel.
