American Dry Gin, 40% ABV
Brooklyn, New York, USA
Distilled from 100% New York-grown corn neutral spirit sourced from Upstate New York; botanicals incorporated in Brooklyn in a Vendome hybrid copper pot still. 11 botanicals including juniper, watermelon, cucumber, coriander, cinnamon, star anise, angelica root, Florentine iris, and zests from oranges, lemons, and limes.
Cucumber leads on the nose along with spicy juniper, watermelon rind, Mandarin orange, and freshly picked mint. The palate is full and rounded with ripe watermelon, grapefruit, cucumber, green cardamom, and white pepper. Notes of lime zest and watermelon rind linger on the finish.
The Battle of Brooklyn broke out in a watermelon patch one block from Fort Hamilton’s distillery in August 1776. Fort Hamilton nods to this history by distilling cannonball watermelon alongside freshly peeled cucumber and 9 other botanicals for a truly liberating experience. With its delicate botanicals on full display, Fort Hamilton New World Gin is as delightful over ice as it is in any number of gin-based cocktails—from a Gimlet to a Martini.
