Stirk’s Small Batch Aged Gin

Detailed Description

Crafted in the London Dry style, Stirk’s Gin is distilled in England before being aged for over three months in oak casks that previously held the Creative Whisky Company’s prized Speyside whisky. Made using the finest botanicals and without any artificial coloring, this unfiltered gin is bottled at 92 proof, with the aging process gently mellowing this herbaceous spirit. The result is a gin with unusual richness that is of course highly reminiscent of Scotch.

Distillery Information

David Stirk, founder and owner of the Creative Whiskey Company, has spent his last 15 years conducting research for Whisky Magazine, authoring The Malt Whisky Guide and travelling/hosting spirits masterclasses around the world. After honing his skills consuming whisky, Stirk partnered with Scotland’s oldest bottler to actually begin making whisky, opening his own distillery in 2005. After a decade spent emptying casks, Stirk recently had the idea to start filling them up again — with gin!
