Join hosts Dylan Almendral (The Gentleman Historian) and Ryan Friesen (distiller) for this week's episode as they share some news about Dylan's new mode of transportation, rules about the production of bourbon, and chat in depth about The Spirit Guild's Astral Pacific Gin (now known as Star Keeper Gin). Bonus- you'll get a chance to meet King Size Dylmand and hear about his affinity for The Whiskey Vault. Don't miss the part where Ryan loses his mind about terroir.
About Star Keeper Gin (Formerly Known as Astral Pacific Gin) All gins start with a base spirit. Typically, it is grain-based and industrially manufactured to be as flavorless as possible. Star Keeper Gin's base spirit is made from clementines, and is purpose distilled to subtly retain some of the character of its source fruit. With a silky texture and a slight lingering sweetness, its proprietary distillate allows our head distiller to compose a gin with structure, a longer finish, and greater definition of component flavors. It is a gin in the classic style, while welcoming some novel flavors to the mix.
About The Spirit Guild Dedicated to celebrating the fruits and flavors of California through the traditional art of distillation. Their tasting room and distillery are situated in Los Angeles’ Arts District on a site where once thrived the state’s first commercial vineyards and orange groves, just blocks from the scenic Los Angeles River.
