2017 Vernal Now Available
Cody Hudson
The tangy, rejuvenating flavors of Southeast Asia inspire Letherbee’s 2017 Vernal Gin. Fistfuls of freshly snapped lemongrass stalk lend the liquid a spritely green hue, and fill the flavor with a minty, citric brightness. Holy basil and raw ginger nimbly coast along each clean sip, then cascade into the mustardy galangal mid-palate. The finish plants a goodbye kiss of creamy almond, savory long pepper, and crisp lemon peel. Try your first pour neat and cold, and then team it into an elevated Gin & Tonic. Moreover, mix it with some orgeat and OJ for a spruced up Mai Tai, or take your Bloody Mary game to the next level. Bringing fragrance and lightness, this refreshing spirit is just right for warm nights. The 2017 Vernal Gin is bottled at 96 proof for a limited run of 3600 bottles.
