GIN

BELLRINGER ENGLAND Bellringer London Dry Gin 94.4PF / 750ML

BRECKENRIDGE USA, COLORADO THE WORLD’S HIGHEST DISTILLERY

Something good. Real good. We are talking purity, blending water from Rocky Mountain snow melt for mineral infused perfection. Breckenridge Gin 90PF / 750ML This fragrant American-style gin stays true to the Breckenridge ideals of mouth-feel and flavor. The juniper body is balanced by notes of bright citrus and complimentary spicy undertones achieved through maceration during distillation. Delicate floral notes are layered throughout the profile. LEOPOLD BROS. DENVER, COLORADO Leopold Bros. relocated operations from Michigan to their home state of Colorado to focus solely on distilling. They included systems to create a zero-waste facility by recycling water, composting, and other methods. Plus, space to accommodate all their fermenters and stills. The site is home to Colorado’s first distillery malting floor and kiln, as well as a dunnage-style barrel-house, a tasting room, and education center. The Leopold Bros. Distillery as it stands today opened in 2014. Leopold Bros. American Small-Batch Gin 80PF / 750ML Small batch distilled by brothers Scott & Todd Leopold. It is infused with more citrus and less juniper than typical gins. Each handcrafted batch is unique, yielding only fifty cases of an exceptionally complex yet subtle spirit. Gentler, softer, suppler, and more delicate than most gin... it’s beautiful, fresh, gracefully perfumed... and well worth a try. “#1 Best American Gin” Wall Street Journal Highly Recommended Beverage Testing Institute Leopold Bros. “Navy Strength” American Gin 114PF / 750ML This high-octane, full-throttle gin is loaded with herbaceous character and tons of bitter citrus peel. Even at 57%, it doesn’t feel over-proofed, but in total balance. This is not the standard Leopold formula with more alcohol. It’s an entirely new formula for people looking to make serious cocktails. Try it in a Tom Collins or gin and tonic and taste the wonderfully concentrated flavor. “Top 10 Spirits” Good Food Awards, 2013 This bright, citrus-forward, vibrant gin truly captures the Summer season. By individually distilling the juniper berries, coriander, blood orange, lemon myrtle leaf, and Helichrysum angustifolium (known as ‘Immortal Flower’), we are able to highlight the truest expression of each ingredient, before blending it into the perfect spirit for a Tom Collins or Gimlet. LIMITED - Sea 92pts Beverage Testing Institute Leopold Bros. Summer Gin 94PF / 750ML

Value-priced, high proof, London Dry style gin. Reminiscent of the old formulation of Gordon’s gin made famous in James Bond’s Vesper cocktail. There’s very little “bargain” gin on the market that is worth checking out. The Bellringer could fool you into thinking you were drinking a $30 bottle of gin, easily. The balance is perfect, the botanicals of juniper are lively, and the finish is clean and dry. The best gin yet for the price, and a fantastic deal (up to 40% less expensive than the average!). Double Gold SF World Spirits Competition “Highly Recommended” Beverage Testing Institute BOOMSMA GENEVER, HOLLAND Family-owned Boomsma is the most traditional of the Dutch Genever-style gins made from malted barley distillate and a delicate juniper berry infusion. Boomsma Jonge Gin 80PF / 750ML Light and elegant... The palate is what sets this genever apart from the average gin: though the botanicals are delicate and subtle, this is a satisfyingly full-bodied yet incredibly smooth spirit. Its delicate blend of botanicals is best savored on the rocks, though it also makes an excellent Martini or Gin and Tonic. 90pts Excellent/ Highly Recommended, Wine Enthusiast Boomsma Oude Fine Old Genever 80PF / 750ML A rich, weighty, full-bodied spirit crafted with wheat spirit, malt distillate, and oak barrel aging. While it displays all the juniper notes you could hope for in a genever, it also integrates rich vanilla, apple, and baking spice notes. 94pts Excellent/Highly Recommended, Ultimate Spirits Challenge 2016
