The taste of a grown-up summer.
In 2012, Jason Barrett was a 24 year-old working in his great-grandfather’s button-making factory in Upstate New York, just like four generations of his family. But he was made for a different path. Before the year was out, he started a small batch distillery operation in his hometown of Rochester.
But he is sentimental enough to have named his new rebel business after the family tradition — Black Button Distilling. Today, four years later, he has developed a range of unique products including a few Gins, their Four Grain Bourbon, a Fernet, two Moonshines, Vodka, and an interesting “Bourbon Cream” liqueur.
Jason likes Gin. He likes it a lot. But this rebel also thinks that Gin shouldn’t “hit you in the face with a Christmas Tree.” To him that means that the juniper needs to be there, but should take a back seat to some of the other botanicals. So in addition to their floral “Lilac Gin,” they have added Black Button Citrus Forward Gin to their line-up with an emphasis on orange zest and local hops. It seems like a small thing, but the difference really works — so much so that Food and Beverage magazine named it the “Official Gin of Summer.”

Ratings & Reviews
Aaron,
I find it interesting to read the love it-hate it comments here....I found this to be one of the best gins I've ever tasted. I like peppery, and this has that, with, to me, a perfect blend of sweetness and light citrus to balance it. VERY flavorful and I'm thrilled to have gotten the Ginaissance tasting kit and discovered it!
Samantha,
I found notes of coriander and black currant. Reminded me more of Ophir spiced gin than anything else. Good, just not what I was expecting from the notes.
Jenna,
Something about this just seems... unbalanced? The flavors don’t seem to meld well. And I like different gins a lot. But this one... this one just doesn’t speak to me. Unsure what I’ll do with the bottle.
Tina,
Did not care for this at all. Started with it on the rocks, moved to dirty gin and tonic (my normal drink) and could not drink it.
David,
Really liked the coriander flavor coming through. Good citrus as well.
