Sweet Sting Honey Spirit

SWEET STING

HONEY SPIRIT

Handcrafted in small batches using dark mead made from local Montana honey. The mead is sourced from Hidden Legend Winery in Victor, MT. We twice distill the mead in our pot still which yields an un-aged honey brandy. This spirit is filled with smooth caramel and honey flavors without the sweetness of mead and comes with a sweet little sting on the finish.

Made using our Lost Trail Rye Vodka as a base, this American Dry style gin is more floral and fruity tasting than the typical London Dry style gins. Ten different botanicals from the best growing regions around the world, including apples from the Bitterroot Valley, are vapor infused into the spirit. It has a strong floral nose of lavender and chamomile, notes of apple on the palate, and a smooth juniper finish. A very approachable gin.
