Koval Barreled Gin Original 750 ml

Koval Barreled Gin Original is a grain-to-glass gin from Koval Distillery in Chicago, made from an organic base spirit and rested in the same small once-used barrels Koval ages its whiskey in. That barrel time pulls in light oak color and a soft vanilla-and-spice undertone beneath the juniper. The nose leans piney and citrus-bright, the palate carries juniper and coriander over a mellow oak warmth, and the finish is dry with a lingering woody spice. It suits drinkers who like their gin with a whiskey-adjacent backbone rather than a purely botanical one.

How to drink Koval Barreled Gin

Try it in an Old Fashioned or Negroni in place of whiskey or standard gin - the barrel notes hold their own against sweet vermouth and bitters. It also works simply over a single large ice cube with a twist.
