Maker Notes

All foreigners think it rains constantly in England, so we thought we’d turn that belief into a distilling and marketing opportunity with a gin that invokes the assault on the olfactory senses that we experience when we open the front doors of our already damp houses and breath in the heady scent of freshly wetted pavement. It may not rain at all where you live, but this pours beautifully. We are famous for our humour.

TASTING NOTES

We’ve combined beetroot with lovage, bay, orange, and ginger to create a gin with light notes alongside earthy tones that give an almost umami quality to the gin - and instantly invoke the majesty of our Sceptered Isle.

Double Gold & Best-In-Show Flavored Vodka 2014 San Francisco World Spirits Comp

A whiskey-brown spirit with numerous apple slices floating at the top of the bottle. The nose is pure apple, with touches of cinnamon, just like grandma used to bake. Smooth as silk on the body the vodka is really only evident on the finish, as the sweet, dessert-like character of the product takes center stage... a fun change of pace to be sure. A Rated Vodka. Christopher Null, Drinkhacker.com

Try with: ginger beer, cider beer (dry), pineapple juice, Irish Cream, or cranberry juice

Rye Whiskey that dates back to the 1800's, around the time when saloons, veiled as Coffee Houses, began lining the streets of New Orleans. It was at the Sazerac Coffee House on Royal Street where local patrons were served toddies made with Rye Whiskey and Peychaud's Bitters. The libation became known as the Sazerac and America's first branded cocktail was born. This is the whiskey that started it all.

King St. Vodka, is a premium craft vodka founded by award-winning actress and dirty martini fan Kate Hudson. Made in Santa Barbara, CA, the name is inspired by Hudson's memories of living on King Street in NYC's Greenwich Village. After a particularly long day, I decided to host an impromptu cocktail party with my closest friends. As I prepared to whip up a batch of dirty vodka martinis I surveyed my bar, but I wasnt 100 percent happy with my options. Then I wondered, Are any of these vodkas founded by women I did some research, they werent. So, I decided to make my own just the way I like it! Says Hudson. King St. Vodka is produced under the watchful eye of Master Distiller, Ian Cutler. A proprietary process using GMO-free corn and alkaline water yields a gluten free, ultra-premium spirit with a hint of sweet vanilla flavor. Distilled seven times and then filtered, King St. is made from the best ingredients to deliver a clean, smooth taste with each sip. Launched November 2019, King Street Vodka makes the perfect martini as well as the ideal foundation for your favorite vodka cocktail. Bottled at 43% ABV.

Wiggly Bridge Gin is made using the same sour mash base that Wiggly Bridge Distillery uses for their award-winning whiskeys, and all their spirits are distilled on their hand-built 60 gallon copper still, which is operated by a father and son team.

Tasting Notes

When first nosed, Wiggly Bridge Gin has prominent notes of licorice and anise, with a subtle hint of hay and corn in the background. This combination of licorice and grain is reminiscent of some genevers. On the palate, the spirit is somewhat thin and quickly washes over the palate, but it has a distinct and warm finish that lingers. Initially, there's a touch of licorice, followed by a sharp juniper flavor and a mild bitterness from orange zest. Towards the end, there's a musky note that comes from the angelica root. Finally, the gin finishes with a long, warm, slightly peppery and licorice-flavored aftertaste.

Founded as a dry community, Evanston, Illinois was the birthplace of the Women's Temperance Movement and home to Frances Elizabeth Willard, an influential protagonist in the story of Prohibition. As the Temperance Movement approached a boiling point, abstinence slowly began to creep across the country and Willard and her league of temperance supporters turned Evanston into a stronghold. For over 100 years, Evanston remained a dry town. It wasn't until Paul Hletko, owner and master distiller at Few Spirits, began lobbying the town that the antiquated laws were lifted. "I'm the vice president of the PTA at my kids' school and I coach their soccer and T-ball teams," Hletko says. "People around town know me and what I'm about, which is handy when you're looking to change 100 years of laws." Today, hidden down a dark alley in a former chop shop, Hletko and his skilled team are producing another batch of Few Spirits Barrel-Aged Gin. The gin is crafted from a mash of corn, wheat and unmalted barley, which is infused with a secret recipe of botanicals, each individually selected for the way it interacts with wood. As its name suggests, Few Barrel-Aged Gin is laid to rest for four months in five-gallon, new American oak barrels which have been toasted with a #3 char. As a result, the gin has a soft amber color, and a nose filled with liquorice candy, citrus and clove. The palate is earthy and balanced, with flavors of fresh grain and sugar complemented by light, oaky undertones. The finish is soft and delicate, with notes of caramel and brown sugar. Bottled at 93 proof, Few Barrel-Aged Gin earned a Gold Medal from the Beverage Testing Institute, where it was the highest rated gin in the last five years.

Situated on the Kentucky River in Frankfort, Kentucky, Buffalo Trace Distillery takes its name from an ancient pathway that migrating buffalo used when traveling westward. The trail was well-known among Native Americans and was eventually used by pioneering settlers who crossed the Ohio River and followed the buffalo trace to the Western frontier. Buffalo Trace Distillery is the oldest continually operating distillery in the United States and includes the rich legacies of master distillers such as E.H. Taylor, Jr, George T. Stagg, Albert B. Blanton, Orville Schupp, and Elmer T. Lee. Today, the distillery is still family-owned, operating on the same 130 acres of land adjacent to the Kentucky River as it has for over 200 years. Trace Distillery's own Master Distiller Harlen Whitley built upon those centuries of knowledge and experience when crafting their Wheatley Vodka. It's a small-batch affair that is distilled 10 times using their one-of-a-kind micro still. It's a combination of a 7X distilled wheat recipe and a 7X distilled grain recipe. After they are combined, they are distilled an additional 3 times, triple-filtered, and bottled at 82 proof, which they found to be perfect for the spirit to show through when mixing cocktails. Yet the crisp, clean, and pure spirit is perfectly drinkable on its own, which is when its subtle hints of vanilla shine through.

A regal take on what many consider to be an essentially rustic distillate, Don Amado Añejo shows amazing complexity beyond simple smoke, and is a great example how barrel flavors can complement rather than mask agave’s wild charms.

Savory, mesquite aromas hint at barbecue and toasted cayenne pepper, while flavors flow between layers of baked stonefruit from the brandy barrel aging. Palate continues in similar form with notes of grilled pineapple, and the finish shows a long, bright and refreshing saline minerality.
