Inspired by the malt-forward, Genever-style gins of Holland, our Bourbon Barreled Gin borrows techniques from both whiskey-making and gin traditions to create this style-defying spirit.
Unlike most traditional gins, which use flavor-neutral spirits as their base, Batch 013 utilizes our malty-rich Tennessee High Malt white whiskey for it's foundation. To this, we introduce a unique blend of 9 botanicals, steeping them in our white whiskey overnight, prior to a final distillation.
Each of our 9 botanicals were hand selected and tested over nearly a year of experimentation to find the perfect balance of aromatic and flavor complexity. Classic ingredients like juniper, coriander, and citrus peel give the spirit a classic, citrusy, and juniper character. More non-traditional ingredients, like kudzu root, Szechuan peppercorn, and caramel malt (from our Tennessee High Malt mash bill) highlight complex notes of earth, spice and sweet, sweet malt.
Finally, the gin is then finished in our own single-use Tennessee High Malt bourbon barrels for 8 months, prior to bottling. This extended process softens and sweetens the overall botanical character of the gin, while also imparting a golden hue to the spirit.
