About Botanist Rested Gin
The Botanist Islay Cask Rested Gin is a premium gin from REMY COINTREAU USA INC, clocking in at 46% ABV (92 proof) and available in 750ml bottles for $37.46. This special edition takes the renowned Botanist Islay Dry Gin, distilled with 22 hand-foraged Islay botanicals, and rests it for six months in ex-Islay whisky casks, imparting subtle barrel influences like vanilla, spice, and oak without overpowering the core herbal profile. What makes it special is the harmonious evolution: herbaceous juniper and citrus remain prominent, enhanced by woody warmth and an 'apple pie' spice complexity, bridging classic gin and aged spirits. Ideal for gin enthusiasts seeking sophistication, it's perfect for sipping neat, on rocks, or in bold cocktails. Compared to standard gins, it offers more depth and mixability than ultra-botanical contemporaries, at a competitive price point under $40, standing out against pricier barrel-aged rivals while retaining the fresh, balanced Botanist DNA.
Tasting Notes
👃 Nose
Predominantly herbal with herbaceous juniper leading, accented by bitter orange rind, woodruff, and subtle barrel notes like cinnamon spice. Hints of pine, orange peel, and forest floor emerge, with warming pepperiness. Floral and citrus zest provide brightness amid soft oak influence.
👅 Palate
Sweet citrus punch opens with orange zest, vanilla cream, and woodruff, transitioning to cinnamon, cassia, and gingerbread spices. Herbaceous juniper builds mid-palate with mint and dark herbal layers, evolving into complex, multi-faceted flavors. Silky, slightly oily mouthfeel coats pleasantly with botanical spice and subtle oak warmth.
✨ Finish
Moderately long and dry with lingering oak, fresh herbs, juniper, and gentle astringency. Peppermint and Christmassy spice notes fade harmoniously.
