This barrel-aged gin has been ‘aged’ in small American Oak barrels, that were once ex- bourbon and then ex-Tasmanian whisky. We say ‘aged’ because the gin is only there for a few weeks, sufficient to provide oaky nuances but soften the juniper to let some of the other botanicals come through more clearly. We age small batches of a SCOUNDREL and of the ORIGINAL and use different barrels so each of our batches has unique characteristics.
