Raw material to bottle
Raw material to bottle
When we say that a gin is made from the raw material to the bottle, it means that the manufacturing process is done entirely in the distillery. So the base alcohol used was made and distilled in the distillery, then processed using botanicals to create a gin, all on the spot. The raw material can be grain, honey, maple, fruits, berries, whey and more.

Recommended tonics
1 - Light tonic
Light tonic
With light tonic, it is better to use a more pronounced gin (ex: aged or juniper berry-based gin) but this tonic is suitable for any variety of gin. The light tonics bring the same traditional taste and the same bitterness as the classic tonics but they are lighter in calories thus leaving more room for the dominant flavors present in some gins.
Recommended garnish: Slice of grapefruit or orange.
2 - Classic tonic
Classic tonic
With classic tonic, it is better to use a drier gin (London dry gin) but this tonic is suitable for any variety of gin. The classic tonics are the most usual and they bring a nice bitterness that perfectly complements the taste of all gins.
Recommended garnish: Lemon, grapefruit or cucumber slice.

"At the top of the Appalachians reigns the king of local gins. Kepler Reserve was born for luxury. Covered in gold at the 2020 Gin Masters in London, it also received the bronze medal at the 2020 San Francisco World Spirits Competition with its very first batch. The three months of aging required in its making give it delicate notes of maple wood and spice, backed by the powerful but well-measured aromas of Labrador tea. Reserve is elegant on ice and prestigious in a cocktail. Best of all, it will let you take all the credit."
Here is the list of cocktails we recommend for this gin:
