Castle & Key Rise Gin (Spring 2022)
Modern Gin
Castle & Key // Kentucky, USA
This is the third seasonal spring release from Castle & Key since its restoration in 2014. Rise Gin starts with the same process and mash bill of the Kentucky distillery's rye whiskey up until the barreling point, where it is then redistilled into vodka, and redistilled again with botanicals in gin baskets, then condensed into a liquid.
The botanicals include juniper, Tarragon, lemon peel, rose petals, green peppercorn, almond, green cardamom, and licorice. Bottled at 103 proof, it's available as of March 2022.

Modern GinAlso has been referred to as "Contemporary", "New Western", "New Wave", and "New American". This style is not legally defined. In general, this category of gin, while it does contain juniper, places less of an emphasis on this botanical. Other botanicals not classically used in London Dry gins are often utilized and often highlight botanicals grown in the region the gin is produced. Most produced as either London Dry or Distilled Gins.
