Many consider St. George Spirits the true pioneers of the American Craft Distillers movement. They have been producing hand crafted spirits of the highest quality in their airplane hangar-turned distillery for over 30 years! With such a wide range of spirits in their catalogue it would only make sense to finally incorporate a gin. But just any old London dry gin would be too simple so, they made three distinct juniper-laden offerings that run a full dynamic range of this herbaceous and botanically driven spirit.
Drawing inspiration from the Dutch Genever style gins (which are actually more of a white whisky infused with juniper and various other herbs and botanicals), Dry Rye is a whiskey lovers gin. The warm, malty rye flavors bring spice and huge mouthfeel. Unlike its Botanivore and Terroir brethren, juniper really plays the star role in Dry Rye. This is no gin for the faint of heart as it is very bold and aggressive. The brilliant use of caraway in the recipe really brings to mind fresh rye bread where grapefruit and lime peel add a pleasant citrus note which lightens things up a bit.
