Barrel Aged Gin
A Beacon Of Defiance
Conniption Barrel Aged Gin isn’t afraid to bend the rules. We’ve embarked on a bold odyssey, defying the ordinary by aging our rebellious sprit in former High West Whiskey bourbon barrels. The result? a complex spirit that carries the torch of tradition into new territories of taste. It’s a smooth, yet undeniably bold testament to craftsmanship that challenges the palate.
The adventure starts with our insurgent gin, forged through a defiant dual-distillation process that merges the edge of modern technology with the soul of ancient gin crafting. As it ages our gin draws deep from the barrels’ essence, enhancing its renegade botanicals - juniper's sharp whisper, caraway's earthy rumble, and lemon's zesty rebellion—with the unexpected twist of cold-distilled figs, adding a layer of rich, dark sweetness.
Upon the first sip, the palate is bold and savory, underscored by the warm embrace of toasted oak, showcasing the depth of its flavor development. Here, every pour is a revolution, a blend of fire and finesse - a gin for those who walk the path less traveled.
Our Barrel Aged Gin has won a Gold Medal from the World Gin awards in 2024 for the Best Matured Gin in the United States.
