Named after the Chesapeake Bay watershed in which the Catoctin Creek flows, Catoctin's Gin is made from an organic rye grain base, as well as organic herbs and spices. The crisp juniper aroma is complemented by the rye base which contributes a unique character offering subtle citrus and cinnamon notes, and a touch of fresh cut hay.
A spicy, woody and soft aroma. Licorice and anise are full-on in the first taste and big in the finish. Soft juniper. A good mouthfeel and full body.

Gin has come a long way since its infamous origins as the scourge of the working classes in 18th century in England. Once called "mother's ruin," gin and its closest relative, Jenever, enjoyed mass popularity during the early 20th century, in cocktails and punches across the globe, but declined with cocktail culture in the 60's and 70's. The international resurgence of martinis and speakeasies has led to a boom in microdistilleries producing high-quality gins for all tastes, from dry to sweet, and with all the aromatic variety of a spice market.
