Burgen Herbal Dry Gin is distilled under vacuum, one of the gentlest forms of distillation. The distillation can already take place at 65 ° C. The result is an extremely intense distillate, as the aromas of the botanicals can be transferred to the distillate much more gently and with a more intense taste due to the low temperature. A vacuum still usually has a small capacity, as enormous forces act on the still due to the negative pressure. With a wealth of experience, this is handcrafted in the traditional Schlitzer distillery. The Burgen Herbal Gin Barrel Aged Edition is finished in a historic barrique barrel from the Schlitzer distillery. The traditional Schlitzer distillery has been producing whiskey in a targeted manner since 2006. The barrique barrel with a capacity of 225l was one of the first barrels in which Schlitzer whiskey was specifically stored. It was originally used to store Spanish red wines and then served as a second occupancy for the popular “Schlitzerland Sour Mash Single Grain Burgen Whiskey” for years of maturation. By reactivating this whiskey barrel, we want to pass on the "spirit" of the Schlitzer whiskeys to our successful Burgen Herbal Dry Gin. Translated by Google
