Since opening in 2018, barrel-aged spirits have been part of an ongoing project at Granddad Jack’s. Our barrels have housed micro-batch gins, whiskeys, and traditional cocktails like the Negroni, Manhattan, and Martini.
Today, we release our 5th edition of the Barrel Aged 65 Miles Gin. What began as an experiment five and a half years ago has now become one of our most anticipated barrel-aged projects. After successfully maturing previous batches in 20L and 50L barrels, this is our first batch, aged in a 100L barrel. Yielding only 88 bottles, this release is a truly limited and unique experience that you won’t want to miss out on.
If you have tried our core range 65 Miles Gin, this is something you'll truly appreciate as this navy-strength gin was matured in a virgin, medium char 100L American Oak barrel for 1 year and 3 months.
We hope you enjoy this release as much as we loved making it.
