Litchfield Distillery Gin

Gold Medal, The Fifty Best 2018. Silver Medal Winner at the 2018, 2019, 2022 & 2023 New York International Spirits Competition. Silver Medal Winner at the 2016 & 2017 San Francisco World Spirits Competition! We use select botanicals, masterfully balanced to create our Batchers’ Gin. We worked hard to create a gin that’s slightly on the sweet side but one that retains a classic juniper signature with citrus overtones. The result is a very smooth spirit with an evolving, crisp finish. It’s martini-grade; serve it neat or in mixed drinks. Bottled at 86 proof. #CTGrown #CTMade

TASTING NOTES:

Nose: Pleasing notes of citrus, vanilla, saffron and white rose.

Palate: Slightly sweet with lemon and grapefruit citrus, along with classic juniper notes.

Finish: An evolving, crisp finish with a little heat in the back; notes of hermit cookie and gingerbread.
