An authentic light & floral craft Gin from Tampa, Florida.

There doesn't need to be an elaborate and complex story behind a distillery and brand. When Matthew Allen and Brandon Marshall decided to venture into distilling, it was with the simplest of goals: to make bloody delicious Spirits. This is how the Cerberus Craft Distillery came to be, and with it the Dark Door Spirits brand. But they wouldn't just be making your regular booze, no siree. Their first release in 2016 was the Spirit of IPA, an IPA Whiskey, and a sign of things to come. The guys went ahead and unleashed their creativity, soon ending up with a lineup of authentic Spirits that challenged the norm.

Their focus on innovation with an emphasis on superior quality is what defines the award-winning Spirit of Prohibition, a lavender-flavored Gin. The base is a neutral grain Spirit that gets distilled in their 1,000-liter column still. The 11 botanicals get added via individual tea bags that are left to soak in the liquid for 2 to 3 days. These botanicals are as follows: juniper berries, cardamom, coriander, angelica root, ginger root, pink peppercorn, various citrus peels (grapefruit, lemon, lime, and orange), and licorice root. Finally, the Spirit passes through a finishing still with the steam passing through juniper berries on its way up, before being returned into the metal container, where lavender and rose hips are added. After 2 weeks, the deliciously floral and lavendery Gin is done!

While juniper-heavy Gin is perfect for your daily G&T, it is also complemented extremely well by tea flavours such as Earl Grey. Try steeping Earl Grey tea bags in Gin for an hour before mixing it with lemon juice and soda for a refreshing tipple. This one gets you additional kudos, so let’s keep it between us.
Juniper berry is the main ingredient of Gin. They are usually picked wild by independent workers throughout Europe and sold via distributors to Gin makers worldwide.
Few Gin distillers make their own alcohol. Gin usually starts with neutral Spirit: A commodity that distillers buy in bulk. It’s what the distiller does with this commodity in the flavor-infusing process that makes each Gin different.
Classifications of Gin: London Dry Gin, Plymouth Gin, Old Tom Gin, Genever or Dutch, New Western or new American or International style.
London Dry Gin is not always from London. Gin does not have the same geographical restrictions as Spirits such as Cognac, Scotch, or Tequila. Only a tiny handful of London Dry Gins are actually made in the city.
It’s a common myth that Gin is a tear-jerker. Of course, drinking too much of it will make you feel awful the next day, but that’s the same with any alcohol.
