The Barreled Gin is a recent (Spring 2016) addition to Koval’s wide breadth of products. They are a grain-to-glass operation that likes to experiment and push boundaries. They age their traditional dry gin for six months in barrels that previously held Koval’s whiskey.
"Here we have a werewolf, and like most werewolves it’s conflicted. It wants to stay a gin but it’s slowly becoming a whiskey. The nose displays coriander, juniper, and rose-hip tea at first but these aromatics are quickly swallowed up by honey and caramel. It is a similar story on the palate. Bitter juniper and quinine quickly shift into vanilla, malt, and marshmallows. The transformation is nearly complete with a long finish full of wood spices. Enjoy neat or with a cube of ice."
