Along with our Manifest Gin and Manifest Straight Rye, this spirit was one that we knew we were going to keep in regular rotation long before we ever opened our doors. Our founders' home bars had a regular rotation of barreled gin from a few American distillers, but there was a limited selection because it is somewhat of a new category in the spirit world. Like the category of gin, barreled gin gives craft distillers the ability to play with flavors to create a really unique variation without waiting 2 to 4+ years.
Like blending any spirit, it is not a linear process. You can't just take a spirit, stick it in a previously used barrel and assume it's going to turn out great. We utilize a combination of oak styles in every batch. From Ex-Rye, new American oak, Ex-Bourbon and European oak. Each batch that we have developed includes blending different age gins from a variety of the cask styles. We invite you to taste each batch and let us know what you think.
