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.”

Few Gin Distillers Make Their Own Alcohol. Gin usually starts with neutral spirit: A commodity that in distillers buy in bulk. It’s what the distiller does with this commodity in the flavour-infusing process that makes each Gin different.

Ratings & Reviews
Matthew,
Grapefruit soda lime and THIS!
Steven,
If I like licorice I would make this higher than seven. Classic coniferous start with a black licorice finish, not enough to be overpowering but enough to notice.
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.
