Production of Cucumber Gin

Production of Cucumber Gin

Quite possibly one of the more innovative spirits a craft distiller can produce. There is an endless amount of botanicals a distiller has at their disposal when it comes to the production of gin. Any combination can lead to different flavor profiles, but the key component of any gin has to be the juniper berry.

One of our most popular spirits is our Cucumber Gin. This London Style Gin is made from various botanicals such as juniper, cardamon, coriander, lemon peel, and orange peel. Other than the juniper, we use fresh, crisp cucumbers as a key component in this one of a kind gin. Truly a labor of love, we will peel and macerate over 40 pounds of cucumbers before we steep them into the spirit with our other botanicals. It will then sit for four days before re-distillation. The large citrus component helps lift the cucumber into a beautiful, light and bright flavor profile.
