Bootlegger 21 Gin New York 0.7L

Bootlegger 21 Gin New York is a gin from the Prohibition Distillery located in historic Roscoe, two hours from New York. The American distillery took the place of a renovated old firehouse and transformed it into a production site for various spirits. The gin's name comes from the law that repealed Prohibition. The gin's label, which resembles a medical prescription, is also linked to this event. During the Prohibition era, alcohol was, in fact, only available with a doctor's prescription. The gin's distillation process consists of two phases. In the first, the Bootlegger 21 New York Vodka is distilled, which is made by macerating corn. The second phase involves macerating five botanicals for twenty-four hours: juniper, coriander, lemon verbena, orris root, and bitter orange. This process is followed by a second distillation to remove the color and blend the flavors. The second distillation process and the presence of these botanicals give the spirit its distinctive floral aroma, with notes of citrus, orange peel, and lemon leaves. The resulting gin is gluten-free, making it suitable for celiacs.
