Building on centuries of traditional Dutch jenevers distillers—thought by many to be the origin of gin—Treaty Oak ages Waterloo Antique gin in medium-char, white oak barrels to create body and complexity of flavor and a robust mouth-feel unusual in gin.  It’s a dash of whiskey richness in a crisp gin flavor.

Already botanically hearty, Waterloo gin is aged for 18 to 24 months, allowing the interaction between wood and spirits to create richer, deeper flavors and aromas, engaging the palate in a long conversation about taste and expectations.

Botanicals: Waterloo Gin is made with a mix of Texas-grown botanicals such as lavender, rosemary, pecans, anise, citrus from the Rio Grande Valley (grapefruit, lemon and orange peel) along with juniper, coriander seeds, ginger and licorice root.

THE TASTE — Sweet floral & vanilla nose, herbal. nutmeg, leather, cinnamon finish

Cocktail: Antique Manhattan Recipe
