Jawbox Small Batch Gin

A classic dry Gin, made from grain to glass in Belfast.

Belfast is an important port city and the capital of Northern Ireland that was built on industry and inventiveness. It’s a town worth seeing if you ever get the chance and, as every other town with a rich history, they’ve developed their own slang. A good example is the word jawbox that you’d hear often at a certain point in the past; it referred to a tenement sink every Belfast house used to have and where all the important convos would happen. The sink was boxy and jaws were dropping around it upon hearing all the juicy gossip, hence, the jawbox.

Jawbox Spirits are produced with a ton of patience for those who know how to savor every moment. Both the distillery and the fields, where the grain is grown, are located on a 300-acre country estate just outside of Belfast. The estate dates back to the 16th century and it’s there that the wizards at Jawbox take their sweet time to produce their premium Gin and Gin Liqueurs.

Jawbox Small Batch Gin is crafted super slowly from 11 carefully selected botanicals. Besides the classic juniper, coriander, Angelica root, lemon peel, cardamom, liquorice root, and orris root, you’ve got local black mountain heather from Belfast, cassia quills, grains of paradise, and cubebs. This classic dry Gin is triple-distilled in copper pot stills and most of the botanicals are “steeped-n-boiled” while three get the vapor extraction method. Bottled at 86 proof, the palate is just the right amount of complex for a neat sipper or as a base in flavorful cocktails.
