Tasting Notes
"Green Hat's "Ginavit," released seasonally for fall and winter, combines the juniper of gin and the caraway of aquavit with the spice of rye. That's a lot going on in one bottle, but it works exceedingly well. It's a spicy, savory spirit, with a rich mouthfeel. Juniper fittingly takes the lead, but the rye bread notes of caraway linger on the finish. It would likely do well in herbal cocktails, or to treat it more like an aquavit, simply serve it neat and chilled straight from the freezer."
