Modern GinAka Contemporary, New Western, New Wave, or New American. Not legally defined, but juniper is not the dominate flavor. Often made with botanicals not historically used and/or sourced locally.
Tasting Notes
"With the amount of botanicals used, it's difficult to stand out but cinnamon and juniper do as does the grain base note. Warm spices make up the mid-palate and the cornichon flavor comes through at the finish. Fun and worth the purchase if you're a fan of pickled things!"
