Adnams Copper House Distilled Gin 70 cl

Adnams Masterbrewer, Fergus Fitzgerald, makes a beer ‘wash’ which is fermented to around 6% abv without the addition of hops. The head distiller, John McCarthy, then takes this beer and puts it through a beer stripping column which removes all the alcohols to create a ‘low wine’ (around 80 – 85% abv). The ‘low wines’ are subsequently distilled in the hand-made copper pot still and purified further in rectification columns to create a clean, pure spirit.
