DISTILLERY NOTES

Bathtub gin is a term from 1920’s American Prohibition, when bathtubs were used to steep alcohol and various botanicals. From these rough origins is borne a truly premium product. Our bathtub gins form part of the Revelstoke Gin Series, a family of locally-made spirits. This series has been handcrafted using ingredients from all over the world. By carefully combining international with local we have created something unique.

BC SPIRITS NOTES

First time trying this from Jones Distilling, #6 in their Bathtub Gin Series. Infused with raspberries and possibly tea, on the nose you get balanced bright gin notes of citrus and juniper along with real raspberries fresh off the bush. On the palate, it blends that classic west coast gin notes with dry raspberry and a hint of tannic tea. Use this in a Clover Club, a hint of sweetness will blow this up.

Alcohol - 37.5% / 75 proof

Color - Watermelon pink

Nose - Fresh off the bush raspberries, hints of juniper and citrus

Taste - Real raspberry, sweet, tart, green seeds, and stems. Then flows through to juniper, citrus and classic Jone’s gin notes.
