Rich, Refined, and Rested to Perfection

Some spirits are aged to soften. This one is aged to stand out. Conniption Barrel Aged Gin is an invitation to slow down, savor, and celebrate the moments worth toasting — whether it's a small personal victory, a conversation that lingers, or a well-earned pause at the end of the day.

Rested to perfection in High West Whiskey bourbon barrels, this gin takes on layers of warm spice, caramelized citrus, and oak-kissed depth, resulting in a gin that sips like a fine whiskey and mixes like a modern classic. Crafted with a pioneering dual-distillation process, it blends time-honored techniques with cutting-edge science, proving that tradition is best honored when it's reimagined.

It starts with a vapor-distilled foundation of juniper, caraway, and bright lemon, delivering a bold and aromatic opening. Then, we introduce cold vacuum-distilled figs, adding a soft, plummy richness that rounds out the palate. As it rests in bourbon barrels, the spirit deepens, soaking in notes of vanilla, toasted oak, and a touch of rye spice, creating a beautifully structured finish that lingers long after the last sip.

More than just a barrel-aged gin, Conniption Barrel Aged stands as the benchmark of excellence, named Best Matured Gin in the U.S. by the World Gin Awards.

First Sip: Bold juniper, warm oak, and bright lemon — rich and complex from the start.

Mid-Palate: Caraway and rosemary bring depth, softened by plummy figs and a whisper of vanilla.

Finish: Long and smooth, with lingering spice, caramelized citrus, and bourbon-kissed warmth.

I tried the gin with a barrel with a barrel aged gin old fashioned recipe. It tasted like a bourbon old fashioned only cleaner. Didn’t think a gin would work in the recipe, but it did!

This is the best aged Gin out there. We live in Washington state and I have tried multiple other aged Gins but continue to order Conniption's because there is no other Gin that can even come close!

Great gin!

We had a chance to try this on the Durham Distillery tour. It impressed us as Durham Distillery’s best gin so far. We love and use their American Dry for most cocktails. But, when we’re seeking something with a little more depth and complexity, we reach for their Barrel Aged. It has a bit more robust flavor which suits some purposes for us. Great gin!

I’m usually not a fan of barrel aged gins since it comes out too bitter, but this version beats all my expectations! It has a barrel finish and sweet as well. Really great in negroni’s too!

Present for a friend

I bought a bottle of the Barrel Aged Series for a gin loving friend because this is the best gin I’ve ever tasted. He loved it at first taste. He’s since made the trek to the distillery to purchase some of Durham Distillery’s other outstanding gins. You can never go wrong with Conniption Gins.

Love the Barrel aged Gin

Shared our barrel ages Gin with friends and family recently and they really liked it. Some had it with a splash of herbal iced tea or ginger ale and others simply drank it on the rocks. Really unique flavor and gin.

Very knowledgeable. Great time.

They did a great job explaining the differences between all their gin options, and I enjoyed the tastings. I bought some for me and more as a gift for my brother. (I also enjoyed their restaurant.)

Next time I’m in Durham I’ll be back.
