Bathtub Gin
Extraordinary gin that has won awards and is crafted by the mysterious Professor Cornelius Ampleforth. It is made using the traditional cold compounding method (or simply put, adding). High-quality alcohol from a copper pot still is infused with botanicals including juniper, orange peel, coriander, cinnamon, clove, and cardamom.
This gin is produced in ultra-small batches, and the duration of the infusion is guided solely by regular sampling. The result is an extraordinary gin that is slightly colored by the botanicals, with a flavor that is both bold and aromatic. It is sure to be a hit with both amateur and professional mixologists. Packaged in brown paper, with twine and wax. This presentation evokes the image of a Victorian apothecary!
Aroma: The initial rich juniper bouquet is supported by a solid backbone of rich grain alcohol. Top notes of cardamom and orange blossom are evident with just a hint of cinnamon.
Taste: At first, the juniper is the strongest, but earthier botanicals also emerge in the initial flavor. The mouthfeel is exceptionally viscous and creamy. It is good alcohol and makes its presence known.
Finish: The juniper recedes, giving way to cardamom and cinnamon, complemented by a revived orange peel.
Overall: Very unusual yet captivating gin. As far as we know, it is the only currently available gin that is cold compounded.
