Gunroom Gin

The name borrows its mood from the British country-house gun room, where the hunting party gathered after a day in the field. Gunroom Gin, made in Sweden, channels that same calm, earthy atmosphere into a bottle aged in whisky casks.

  • Bottle of Gunroom 12 Botanicals Gin
    Item no.: 2222786539-6088

    Distilled in England but created for Integrity Spirits in Stockholm, this gin brings together twelve carefully selected botanicals in a spicy, complex profile.

    Expert's description

    Gunroom 12 Botanicals Gin is an English London Dry Gin, bottled at 40%.

    The gin is built on twelve botanicals: coriander seeds, juniper berries, orris root, nutmeg, cinnamon, orange peel, lemon zest, angelica root, liquorice, savory and almonds.

    The combination of nutmeg, cinnamon and coriander seed gives the gin a distinctly spicy character, while orange peel comes through more prominently on the palate than on the nose.

    The gin is typically enjoyed with plenty of ice, where the orange notes come out particularly well.

    Tasting notes

    Finish

  • Bottle of Gunroom London Dry Gin Aged In Whisky Casks
    Item no.: 22227865446-23

    Gunroom draws inspiration from the 19th-century gin style, when spirits were transported in barrels and therefore picked up a distinct cask character.

    Expert's description

    Gunroom London Dry Gin Aged In Whisky Casks is a London Dry Gin, bottled at 43%.

    The gin is inspired by the historic transport method, where alcohol was shipped in barrels and thereby gained a characteristic cask imprint in both flavour and aroma.

    This edition has been aged in old whisky casks for between 45 and 60 days, giving it a lovely subtle taste of vanilla.

    The cask ageing is complemented by the classic juniper notes, which remain the gin's backbone.

    Tasting notes

    Nose

    The nose offers juniper complemented by a light vanilla tone from the whisky casks.

    Palate

    The palate is classic, with juniper and a subtle vanilla from the cask ageing.

    Finish

    The finish is soft, with a touch of vanilla and wood.

About Gunroom

Gunroom is a gin whose name and world reference the classic British hunting and country-house tradition, though it is actually created and produced in Sweden. For newcomers it's a round, spicy gin with an earthy character; for collectors it's notable that the gin is aged in whisky casks, a technique that gives it a depth and woody complexity usually only found in far pricier spirits.

History & Background

Gunroom Gin is created and produced in Sweden by Renbjer & Magnusson AB, who chose to build the brand around British hunting and country-house culture as its mood rather than a typical Scandinavian profile. The idea was to create a gin that felt as at home in a classic British gun room as in a Nordic cocktail bar. A key part of production is ageing in used whisky casks, a method far more common in whisky than gin, giving Gunroom a markedly different character from most competitors. The name is thus both a nod to tradition and a description of the woody depth the gin has picked up from the casks.

Production & Style

The gin is distilled with juniper and a chosen composition of botanicals in a traditional style.

Signature Style

Spiced, Earthy, Round
The taste offers a round, spiced character with earthy undertones.
