The No-Tail Gin from Mr. Right-setbauer.
 
Hans Reisetbauer began his obsession of distilling in 1994. On his family farm-house in Axberg, Austria he planted the first orchards from which he distilled his first Eau de Vie’s. The dedication and care for top quality fruits, distillation and innovation brought him Worldwide fame, and consequently brought his spirits to restaurants, to bars, to all corners of the globe.
 
On his constant search for the taste he decided to create a Gin that would demonstrate his vision of how Gin should really taste like. The Blue Gin Vintage Dry is a pot-still, small batch Gin, made with one of the softest waters around and produced from ‘Mulan’ wheat which is locally sourced. The first batch was made in 2006 where 50 different botanicals were used, but nowadays, with constant improvements, "just" 27 botanicals are used (the main one still being Juniper from Macedonia).   

Mr.R has a very strict method of production - he never uses heads or tails in the process of destillation - so the result is an extremely pure and smooth Gin

We invented Flavor Spiral™ here at Flaviar to get all your senses involved in tasting drinks and, frankly, because we think that classic tasting notes are boring.

Hardcore Gin lovers say the word Martini should never be preceded by Vodka, lobster, or pomegranate. They say the original and the only real Martini consists of Gin, Vermouth & olives, period!
Gin gets its dominant flavour from juniper berries. As with many other spirits, Gin was originally intended to be used as medicine. Yeah right!
Hans Reisetbauser has been named as Austrian Distiller of the Year five times, and his products are world renowned; especially his award-winning fruit Brandies – available in more than 20 different varieties and flavors.
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.
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.
As producers try to develop new styles and flavors of Gin, to push the category and find a niche, the need for trying new methods of extracting flavors, as well as using more unusual botanicals, has grown.

One such way is the vacuum distillation method, when the redistillation of botanicals takes place in a vacuum.
