Description
Crafted by Round Turn Distilling in Biddeford, Maine, Bimini Barrel Reserve No. 1 Gin offers a unique and inviting take on their original Bimini Gin. This expression is aged to add layers of warm and comforting flavors, reminiscent of those days when a light sweatshirt is needed on the beach.
Aging Process:
The gin is barreled at full distillation strength (180 proof) for three months in three different types of twice-used barrels:
-
Ex-bourbon Apple Brandy
-
Ex-bourbon Rum
-
Ex-bourbon Sea Salt
After aging, the results are blended and diluted to 101 proof (50.5% Alc/Vol) and rested in stainless steel for six weeks before bottling. This careful process enhances the familiar botanical notes of Bimini Gin without overshadowing them with heavy oak and char qualities.
Tasting Notes:
-
Nose: Bright citrus aromas from hops and grapefruit, intensified with subtle hints of salinity.
-
Palate: Juniper leads upfront, mingling with flavors of tree fruit in the mid-palate.
-
Finish: A lingering finish featuring notes of caramel and vanilla, providing a smooth and satisfying conclusion.
Serving Suggestions:
Bimini Barrel Reserve No. 1 Gin is versatile and can be enjoyed neat, on the rocks, or as a unique base in classic gin cocktails. Its enhanced flavors also make it an excellent substitute for light rum in tropical drinks, offering a new dimension to your favorite recipes.
Experience the harmonious blend of traditional gin botanicals with the added warmth and complexity from barrel aging in Bimini Barrel Reserve No. 1 Gin.
