$125. 00
Bottle
$1500.00 Dozen
ABV: 47%
Upon its release in 2013, Hernö was officially the first distillery in the world to age gin in casks made out of juniper wood. The spirit is matured for one month in tiny 39.25 litre barrels before being bottled at 47%. Batches typically yield about 500 bottles, each one finished with a natural beeswax seal.

Tasting note: [Batch 30 tasted] Very pale straw blush. Herbal / earthy / fresh opening sniffs are also sappy, resiny, peppery and pleasingly dry. 3-4 minutes finds fresh sawn pine, potpourri and hints of eucalyptus. Creamy, with vivacious lemon myrtle, peppery juniper and thyme flavours and a flare of alcohol lifting the finish. Excellent length and balance. Ends tangy, dry, peppery, lipsmacking. Delightful. 47% Alc./Vol. Unfiltered.
