Herno Juniper Cask Gin
London Dry 47% ABVThe ultimate juniper gin
Herno Juniper Cask is the purest expression of juniper I have ever experienced in a gin. At 47% the cask influence doubles down on what makes gin special. This is what every juniper lover has been waiting for. Absolute perfection.
Swedish juniper masterpiece
The juniper cask ageing is a stroke of genius. It amplifies the juniper character without adding the vanilla and oak notes of standard barrel ageing. At 47% this London Dry is extraordinarily focused and pure.
Brilliant concept from Sweden
Herno consistently produces some of the best Scandinavian gins. This juniper cask expression at 47% is bold and distinctive. The cask-derived juniper adds a wonderful woody depth to the spirit.
Juniper squared
Herno ages their gin in juniper wood casks — so you get juniper from the botanicals AND the barrel. At 47% this is intensely piney and aromatic. If you love juniper, this is your ultimate gin.
Pine forest in a glass
If you close your eyes while sipping this you could be standing in a Swedish pine forest. The juniper cask ageing at 47% creates an intensely aromatic gin that is unlike anything else.
Too much juniper perhaps
I appreciate the concept but the double juniper hit from both botanicals and cask at 47% might be overkill for some palates. It is extremely piney and resinous. Fascinating but I prefer a more balanced profile.
Innovative cask finishing
Using juniper casks instead of oak is such a clever idea. It gives this 47% London Dry an extra layer of resinous, piney complexity. Herno continues to push boundaries from Sweden.
