Bivrost Cask Aged Gin Norwegian Arctic Gin 50 cl 44%
Bivrost Cask Aged Gin is a unique and characterful gin from the Norwegian distillery Bivrost, inspired by the Arctic nature that surrounds it. This gin is based on the distillery’s popular Arctic Gin but has gained an extra dimension through cask maturation. After distillation, the gin has been aged for eleven months in a combination of Amontillado sherry casks and the distillery’s own charred Oloroso casks. The result is a deeper and more complex version of the gin, where the influence of the wood beautifully balances the classic juniper notes and fresh botanicals.
The aroma is fruity and inviting with notes of juniper, citrus, and subtle oak, instantly sparking curiosity. The taste is fresh and fruity with layers of juniper, spices, and a hint of oak, giving the gin a rounded and sophisticated character. The finish is soft, warm, and silky smooth, making this gin especially pleasant to enjoy neat.
Bivrost Cask Aged Gin is not designed for classic long drinks such as Gin & Tonic or Martini, as the cask maturation softens the fresh and sharp gin aromas that normally dominate in those serves. Instead, it is excellent for cocktails where its depth and complexity can truly shine. It can, for example, replace bourbon or whisky in classics like Old Fashioned or Martinez, adding an exciting twist with its Arctic and lightly spiced notes. It also pairs beautifully with desserts, a good cup of coffee, or ice cream, where its silky texture and sweet cask notes are highlighted in the best way.
This gin is produced in very limited quantities and is therefore aimed at both collectors and gin enthusiasts looking for a special experience. It combines Arctic botanicals, traditional craftsmanship, and inspiration from the whisky world in a way that creates a truly unique product. Bivrost Cask Aged Gin is a modern interpretation of what gin can be, clearly showing that cask maturation is not only reserved for whisky but can also elevate gin to new heights.
