Rating: 17/23 This may not be as balanced as the regular Copperworks gin, but it ramps up the vanilla and adds some nice wood maturity. I'd love a little more balance to this, but this is a great demonstration of why barrel aged gin and maybe whiskey matured with herbs should be common products. Compare with a mature bourbon, this doesn't have the same barrel prominence, but it compares with about a 2 year old (and maybe some 4s). That isn't the point here though - there's such a great profile here. It could also sub in some whiskey cocktails on a hot summer day. I don't think I've described this well here, but it's a 17.
