In the Glass

Appearance

Brilliant, crystal clear.

Aromatics

The aromatics are alluring and complex with orange peel on near equal footing with the juniper supported by coriander and cardamon giving a slight Indian spice feel.

Flavor

The palate echoes the nose delivering a rich and silky grain spirit core infused with vibrant juniper and citrus with enough acidity to add lift and brightness.

Intensity & Texture

Medium to full-bodied with a velvety core spirit with the botanicals seamlessly integrated while being perfectly balanced.

Cool Factor

I have been a fan of the Vermont Spirits since their founding. The Coppers Gin is rich and complex with a beautiful integration of botanicals.

Value Grade

In the upper $20 range the Coppers Gin is well inline with high quality craft Gins made in America.

Analysis

The Coppers Gin is named for coins issued by the Republic of Vermont in 1785. This expressive American Gin is distilled with wild juniper berries picked in Northern Vermont along with coriander, angelica root, cassia, orange peel, and cardamom pods. The spirit itself is wonderfully lush while vibrant with bright acidity and fresh citrus accents. So many craft Gins seems to have the botanicals externally attached while the Coppers Gin presents a beautifully made seamless spirit.

How to Enjoy

Serve in the perfect classic Gin Martini.
