At Time Anchor Distillery, we pour more than just spirit into a bottle, we distil time, tradition and innovation. Our Mirari Whiskey Barrel Aged Gin is no exception. Winner of the coveted Michelangelo Gin Trophy, this is a gin that defies expectation and rewards those who seek something extraordinary.
Barrel-aged for over two years, first in new American oak, then finished in our own whiskey casks, this spirit offers a richness more often found in fine whiskies, while retaining the botanical complexity that defines a true gin.
But how do you enjoy a gin like this?
Whether you’re a seasoned enthusiast or just beginning your journey into barrel-aged spirits, here are the most exceptional ways to sip, savour, and explore every layer of this award-winning gin.
Sip Neat or Over a Large Ice Cube
Let the spirit speak for itself, without interference. The oak-aging softens the mouthfeel and adds a slow-building warmth, while the gin’s core botanicals remain gracefully present.
Neat: Ideal for appreciating its full spectrum of flavour.
Over Ice: A single, large cube slowly unlocks its layers without dilution.
Elevate Your G&T
Not all gins belong in a G&T, but this one does, if done right.
Mixer: Use a premium Indian tonic.
Garnish: A twist of orange peel or slice of fresh fig.
Glass: Serve in a lowball or balloon glass with plenty of ice.
The result is a bold, aromatic G&T with richer depth and a slightly spiced finish.
