Irish gin rested in tiny 50 litre juniper wood casks for 30 days! The small casks used are not scorched and are specially commissioned from Eastern Europe. As with their No.5 release, this gin uses 12 botanicals including juniper, nutmeg, liquorice, coriander and cinnamon, but to a different recipe (sweeter roots are used more liberally, for example, to counteract any astringency from the juniper wood).
