About this bottle

Deacon Giles Distillery, established by Ian Hunter and Jesse Brenneman in Salem, Massachusetts, creates spirits in small, handcrafted batches. Their Original Gin is crafted from malted barley and rye, then infused with botanicals including juniper, coriander, orange peel, lemon peel, mace, cardamom, rose hips, and angelica root. The gin follows the "Old Tom" style, a method popular in 18th-century England, and is presented at 43% ABV.

Works better in a G&T than neat, but that's typical for gin! Still, I appreciate the depth and sweetness here.

How the score is built

3.42 is the plain average of 4 reviews.

The 3.71 score we rank by pulls that average toward its category until enough people have weighed in, so a handful of glowing reviews cannot outrank a thousand steady ones.
