Prairie Organic Gin
Modern Gin
Prairie // Minnesota, USA
A Minnesota operation, Prairie spirits buys corn from local farmers to use as the base in all of their spirits. The corn is grown organically and the farmers employ traditional methods to take care of invasive weeds such as controlled brush fires as opposed to modern pesticides.
The leftover grains are used as animal feed for neighboring livestock. The gin is a proprietary infusion of herbs and botanicals.

Tasting Notes
"Prairie Gin shows classic aromatics of piney juniper and earthy roots over a baseline of toasted grains. The palate is a bit soft, but has the requisite herbaceous to define it as gin. Unfortunately the grain spirit base shows too much sweetness and any of the complexity of the other ingredients is ultimately lost. This would be an okay introduction to the category but gin aficionados should steer clear."
