Copperworks Tonic Cask Finished Gin (750 ml)

This cask was originally used to age a Kentucky bourbon, then moved on to age Bradley’s Kina Tonic here in Seattle. Once the tonic was emptied from the cask, we brought it over to Copperworks and added our Small Batch Gin. Five months later, our gin left the cask with a shimmering pale-yellow hue and even more complex flavors.

Tasting notes: Herbaceous and resinous scents assert themselves but are followed by gentle notes of lemon meringue, cinnamon sticks, cedar, and a touch of vanilla and banana. A sweet warmth envelops the palate with a symphony of sugared oak, baking spice, creamsicle, sweet mint and black pepper that softens into the finish. Slow to leave the palate, sweet mint, chinchona bark, and cinnamon linger with an intermingling note of sweet lemon candy.
