The latest addition to our range is a very special limited edition gin from Linlithgow Distillery. This is second batch of the LinGin Cask Aged Gin and only 276 bottles have been released.

LinGin Cask Aged Gin #2

Just as the first lockdown hit the UK in Spring 2020 the team at Linlithgow Distillery started experimenting ageing their flagship LinGin in a whisky cask. They had no idea what the outcome would be but being whisky fans they were keen to try!

The cask that was chosen to age the gin was a Glen Moray whisky cask that had previously been used to age bourbon.

Over the course of the next 3 months a small amount of spirit was extracted on a weekly basis to taste how the flavours were developing. With notes of vanilla, chocolate and burnt toast complementing the LinGin botanicals beautifully, Batch #1 of the Cask Aged Gin was released after 93 days. 

Keen to experiment further, the distiller decided to age Batch #2 for longer. This gin has spent just under 8 months (238 days to be precise) ageing in another Glen Moray cask. The result is an incredibly smooth gin with whisky tones of vanilla and chocolate and a delightful golden hue.

Serving Suggestions

As the gin is so smooth, it is great when sipped neat over ice. If you're looking for a long drink then it works as a classic G&T or topped with ginger ale and garnished with a wedge of zesty orange. 

Cocktail lovers will also enjoy the Cask Aged Gin and we think it makes a mean Old Fashioned!
