100% local grain to the still; distilled and aged on site in Indiana at MGP where the whiskey ages 25% slower than on the West Coast and conforms to a traditional bourbon character of complex grain expression.
Unique for MGP is the 4 grain bourbon, the corn and rye provide the backbone, the wheat uplifts both aroma & flavor, and the barley harmonizes the three.
Straight Bourbon Whiskey, straight from the barrel, assembled, proofed and into the bottle. No charcoal or cold filtration.
AROMAS: Orange blossoms compliment notes of black tea, honey and dusty pepper.
FLAVORS: Pekoe tea, orange peel, cinnamon and vanilla custard. Hints of sweet tobacco and spice lead to a rich, dry finish.
We are inspired by the courage of Lillie Hitchcock Coit and pay tribute to her daring boldness.
We dare to create the truly exceptional. We challenge the notion of the traditional with unique, handcrafted elixirs that capture her fiery independent spirit. The label a see-through bottle incorporates Coit Tower into the bottle shape.
Long-time Napa Valley vintners, lovers of spirits and enamored by gin, we began this journey to capture the essence of each ingredient to craft…spirits with spirit. Owners Gerry & Linda Rowland established Coit Spirits in 2018.
Using foragers and wildcrafters, we find our herbs at peak maturity. The ratio of each ingredient affects the synergy of the final aromas and flavors. A botanical mix that looks good on paper may not succeed, and only taste will tell.
Wine generously allows you three to four weeks during the fermentation to get the basic product right. Gin gives you five hours to bring out the individual character of the botanicals during the distillation. Our amazing journey has brought us to crafting spirits… Trained by European Ginsmiths we felt perfectly prepared for the challenge, in addition to having harvested and bottled 52 vintages of wine in three countries, two hemispheres.
