Breckenridge Gin
Proof: 90
Breckenridge Distillery is based in Breckenridge, Colorado and is a distillery that is perhaps best known for their line of award winning Colorado whiskeys. The founder claims it to be a perhaps βunfair advantage*β being able to use the local Breckenridge water for distilling/proofing. Many Colorado distillers and breweries lay claim to Rocky Mountain water as being among their keys to success.
Distillery notes: This fragrant American-style Gin stays true to the Breckenridge ideals of mouthfeel and flavor, through maceration and botanical basket distillation. A delicate harmony of 11 botanicals layer the Gin throughout the spirit; a full-body juniper lies at the forefront, bright citrus and complementary undertones of spice give a nod to the beauty thatβs created when flowery aromas meet comforting spices.
Breckenridge gin is a quintessential American-style gin, featuring more prominent, bright citrus-forward, floral notes, compared to its London counterpart. Handcrafted in small batches using a bespoke Vendome custom copper pot still.
