Harvest gin is a seasonal dry gin crafted around a botanical blend that speaks to the aromas and flavors of autumn. While Castle & Key’s flagship gin, Roots of Ruin, leans bright with notes of citrus and ginger, this seasonal expression dials back its floral character in favor of a verdant forest covered in the first snap of cold. Both baking spice and savory herbs complement classic notes of juniper, making this a compelling choice for more brooding takes on classic cocktails such as Negronis, Gin Daisies, and even mulled wine!
