No.209 Barrel Reserve Chardonnay Gin

No.209 Barrel Reserve Chardonnay Gin is an exceptional expression that begins as the distillery's signature small-batch gin, then undergoes a unique finishing process in French oak barrels previously used for aging highly-regarded Chardonnay wine. This maturation imparts a rich, golden hue and remarkable complexity, bridging the gap between gin and fine aged spirits. The Chardonnay barrels contribute notes of creamy vanilla, toasted oak, and a subtle buttery richness, beautifully complementing the gin’s botanical core of juniper, citrus, and spice. The result is an incredibly smooth, versatile spirit with a velvety texture. It offers layers of citrus zest and floral spice upfront, followed by a warm, lingering finish thanks to the wine cask influence. This is ideal for sipping neat, on the rocks, or as a sophisticated twist in classic cocktails like a Martinez or a Gin Old Fashioned.
