Vitae烈酒采用的是法国或苏格兰酒厂更为熟知的罐式蒸馏法,用到的器材也是在苏格兰和法国白兰地酒厂中更常见的那种带有精馏管,和装有龙头的蒸馏器的铜制蒸馏罐。这家来自维吉尼亚的酒厂在酿制自家金酒的时候用到了一种美国产的甘蔗糖蜜,其它的16种原料都蕴含丰富的植物油,导致出品的金酒在倒入冰过的杯中时会呈现雾状浑浊状态。
Vitae Spirits’ Modern Gin is a dry gin that has a distinct but not overpowering juniper berry influence that allows the complexity of the other 16 botanicals to shine through; the true definition of a modern gin. Modern Gin is redistilled in small batches using neutral spirits produced from American sugar cane molasses and water from the slopes of the Blue Ridge Mountains. We have developed an unconventional hybrid production technique that applies both maceration and vapor infusion to extract aromatic oils from the botanicals so that the robust base notes as well as the ephemeral delicate aromas are captured in our bottle, ready to burst on your tongue. Unlike the many diluted gins out there Modern Gin is so packed with aromatic botanical oils that when shaken with ice you can see the oils fall out of solution in a delicate cloudiness, called a louche. If you want a gin with maximal flavor, look for the louche.
TASTING NOTES & BEST USES
Our gin stands out from the crowd by the fact that its base spirit comes from American sugar cane molasses. This gives our Modern Gin a depth, complexity, and a mouth feel that serves as a foundation from which to elevate and balance the aromatics in a manner rarely seen in other gins. Modern Gin is so crisp, clean, and focused that it needs little else than a good stir with ice, but makes a fantastic Gin & Tonic, Negroni, Tom Collins, or Gin Fizz among other cocktails.
