St. George Dry Rye Reposado Gin 750ml

A barrel-rested gin? Yes! St. George Dry Rye Reposado Gin adds rich notes of dark fruit to our juniper-forward Dry Rye Gin with time in ex-wine casks, making it a genre-defying spirit that will delight fans of genever, whiskey and those who love to blur boundaries. 49.5% ABV.

The Dry Rye Gin has only six botanical ingredients: Malabar black pepper, caraway, coriander seed, grapefruit, juniper, and lime. Juniper is the star of the show in this spirit, but while gin typically highlights the peppery side of the botanical, the time our Dry Rye Repo spends in ex-wine barrels brings out the fruit qualities of the juniper berry.

The Dry Rye Gin is rested in French and American oak wine casks that previously held Grenache rosé, Syrah, and Tannat. Because unaged rye is the base spirit of our Dry Rye Gin, it lent itself beautifully to some time in barrel. The barrels came from local Blacksmith Cellars, run by winemaker Matt Smith—brother of St. George head distiller Dave Smith.

Dry Rye Reposado Gin has a robust malt character, with piquant spice and the suggestion of stone fruit. It’s a natural in an Old Fashioned, Manhattan, Martinez, or any other classic rye cocktail and is also a beautiful complement to drinks that feature sherry, umeshu, and ginger.
