Item Description
Crispin Cain apprenticed for seven years with Hubert Germain-Robin, then founded Greenway Distillery (now Mendocino Spirits) in 2005. Crispin has been experimenting with whiskey for a lot of years and winning awards along the way.
The three spirits in this package are:
Russell Henry Dry Gin
The gins we are familiar with are mostly "London Dry" gins, column-still spirits derived from corn, grains, or even sugar beets, flavored with juniper (otherwise it can’t be called gin) and usually other flavoring agents/botanicals, natural or artificial. Russell Henry uses a wheat-based grain-neutral spirit redistilled on the Germain-Robin 16HL cognac still, and also on a small Holstein potstill, following infusion with juniper and several other aromatics; the ginger version is additionally infused with organic ginger, the lime version with limes and their leaves.
Low Gap Whiskey
Distilled by hand on a small antique 16HL cognac still at the Germain-Robin distillery. This still is unequalled in yielding subtle complexity and flavorful distillates with superb length. WHISKEY ADVOCATE'S 2012 Artisan Whiskey of the Year.
DSP 162 Vodka
This vodka shows you what is important about authentic hands-on craft-method distillation, which is about preserving the fresh taste and aroma of the fruit, about deriving flavors and aromas that are clean and pure, about distilling a spirit smooth and lingering, and in the end about sensory pleasure. Craft-method talk is easy. Genuinely superb craft-method spirits like DSP 162 are not easy to produce. This is the real stuff.
