D. H. Krahn Gin is 40% abv. / 80 proof and made in the USA in small batches. they use French, custom made, Stupfler alembic copper pot stills, which are considered some of the best stills made. Many gins brag about being triple or quadruple distilled. The multiple distilling is done for a variety of reasons, but usually to make the gin as clear and neutral tasting as possible, before adding the botanicals and redistilling. D. H. Krahn says that they start with clean neutral spirits and then add the botanicals. After which the gin is only distilled once to "preserve the fragile aromas and precious essential oils of the botanicals- essences that are lost each time a spirit is distilled." Then the gin sits for three months after distilling to meld and mellow. The product was created by two Cornell students, Dave Hughes and Scott Krahn who were designing a unique brand for a class project and decided upon a premium gin. They became so enthusiastic about the class project that after graduation they pursed the dream, to create the product in reality.
The botanicals used in D. H. Krahn, as listed on their website are: "Jumbo Italian Juniper Berries, Moroccan Coriander Seed, Floridian Oranges, Californian Lemon and Grapefruit, and rounded out with a touch of Thai Ginger."
The aroma is sweet, smooth, light, and round. It has light juniper, mild spice, and a sweet fruit and citrus profile. It's a very soft and pleasing scent that develops a nice, mildy musky tone as it opens up, with the citrus becoming more evident.
The taste is light, clean, and exceptionally smooth. The complex taste is well balanced with the botanicals bleeding well. Not one component overwhelms any of the others so you get a gin that is different from the norm, but all gin in taste. It is a very pleasant gin that will appeal to those who want something a bit more refined and elegant. A gin that isn't overpowering. This gin is best for sipping straight on the rocks or in a very dry martini, and would be wasted in mixed drinks.
D. H. Krahn can be found in many NY liquor stores and on the net at www.BevMax.com. I do have to say that they have the most silly and annoying website. www.dhkrahn.com It's all about fashion and dating, but any real information on the product was buried in the last place you come to. The last line of the last topic heading. That's trying a bit too hard to make their product seem above the rest in my opinion.
