I was initially hesitant about this spirit, perhaps due to unfamiliarity, as I wasn't aware they produced gin. I associate them with bourbon and rye. It was so excellent that I didn't require a mixer -- just a lime wedge for some citrus balance. A soft juniper taste, very floral. I'm adding this to my shortlist of gins I can drink neat.

Smells of anise and spice, crisp and clean on the nose and initial taste, with a nice dry and long scotch finish. Well done!
Vanilla on the palate, with undertones of rosemary and the traditional spices from the rye barrel finish.
Smells like lemon, a bit sweet and easy to drink.
Exceptional when chilled, light and well-balanced.
Excellent. Smooth, enjoyable neat.
