Four Pillars Sherry Cask Gin
From: Four Pillars Distillery
Sherry Cask Gin is rich and layered, with fruit and nut flavours. Four Pillars’ Sherry cask solera is made up of 42 casks, some from Spain and some from Australian Apera (fortified wine).
The colour has deepened as the casks age, and residual sherry characters are underpinned by pine oil notes. The gin finishes with a subtle sweetness from the tweak of Amontillado Sherry they add at bottling.
