THE NEWEST UNSUKAY SINGLE BARREL HAS LANDED. AND GUESS WHAT? IT’S GIN!

Drumroll, please! Introducing “Crooked System”

As you all know, we’ve picked MANY, many barrels over the years, but this is our very first gin. Crafted in collaboration with American Spirit, it’s our first dive into the world of hand-picked gin barrels. Trust us, this one’s a game-changer.

We had a blast selecting this barrel, and we’re (quite literally) bursting with excitement to share it with you.

Details: Barrel #82 – Barreled on 12/07/2022 – Bottled on 4/09/2024 – 107.4 proof

Tasting Notes:

• Nose: Opens with fresh grass and orange blossom honey.
• Palate: Orange creamsicle, puff pastry, burnt sugar, slight vegetal notes on the backend
• Finish: Does not drink as hot as it sounds. Great in a cocktail or stirred and served up.

 

And The Old Favorite: “Coffee is for Closers” 

Another Unsukay / ASW collab. This one’s for the bourbon lovers.

Details: Mashbill – 51% corn, 45% wheat & 4% malted barley – 116.1 proof

Tasting Notes:

• Looks like coffee coming out of the barrel. Dark & rich. We had to filter it twice as chunks of wood from the toasted staves were very prevalent when we took our samples.
• Nose: Sweet nose of heavy vanilla, pecan pie & butterscotch. Makes your mouth water.
• Palate: Tiramisu, coffee, mocha and hints of fruitcake 
• Finish: The viscosity is awesome. Coats your mouth & really lingers. Caramel & marshmallow…

 

In honor of National Craft Distillery Day on Wednesday, May 22 we’ll be serving up both “Crooked System” & “Coffee is for Closers” for only $10/pour. $12 if you want to throw ‘em in a Negroni, Manhattan or other classic cocktail of your choosing.
