Golden Moon Gin – Port Cask Reserve
From: Golden Moon Distillery
The team at Golden Moon Distillery start with their regular Golden Moon Gin, then they condition the spirit in wet port casks from one of the top port-style wine producers in Napa Valley in California.
Using freshly emptied wet port casks made from French oak from the Limousin forest results in a gin with a totally unique flavour, a wonderful rose-red colour and a silky-smooth mouth feel.
