Fifty 50 Gin

House of Macduff's Fifty/50/Gin is, unsurprisingly, all about the number 50. The first batch was bottled at 50% ABV in these 50cl charming barrel-style bottles. It was created by maturing half of its London dry style gin in virgin oak casks for 10 years, before finishing the spirit for a further 10 years in ex-whisky barrels before being blended with an equal volume of unaged London dry gin. The result is a gin with a golden, whisky-style colouring and a profile that shares a lot of classic characteristics with whisky, but ultimately is still a cask-aged gin. The first batch was produced with a limited run of 1994 bottles.
