Gunroom London Dry Gin Aged In Whisky Casks 43%

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.
