Alpengin Barrel Aged Dry Gin - Rum Edition

Gin in a barrel? What is a Barrel Aged Dry Gin?

Barrel-aged gin, also called barrel-aged gin, is a special category for connoisseurs and enthusiasts. Aging in oak barrels gives the gin depth, complexity, and a smooth, rounded structure. The essential oils from juniper and botanicals harmonize with the aromas of the barrel – in our case:

• A rhum agricole barrel from Martinique,

• made in Cognac, France,

• with subtle notes of vanilla, candied orange, coffee, and honey.
  

This unique combination gives the gin a warm, slightly sweet aroma – without losing the character of a true dry gin.

A truly unique piece

Our Alpengin Barrel Aged Dry Gin – Rum Edition is a single barrel gin – meaning it comes from exactly one barrel. When the barrel is empty, this edition is history forever.

Tasting Notes

• Nose: Juniper, rum pot, dried fruits

• Taste: Candied oranges, delicate vanilla, coffee, and a hint of honey

• Finish: Warm, soft, and lingering – with elegant barrel spice
