VL92 Gin was born of the quest of two entrepreneurs to find their ultimate gin. Built upon a malt wine foundation, VL92 Gin has its roots in the Dutch Genever tradition. The malt wine gives it its boldness; its complexity derives from the play between botanical elements that finish with the eccentric, citrusy endnote of a most surprising ingredient: coriander leaf. The gin is named after a historic Dutch sailing vessel whose freight contained exotic spices too daring for the local Genever recipes - but wildly perfect for a VL92 Gin.
Premium aged gin composed of 55% barrel aged malt wine, the typical base of genever. VL92 YY is a hybrid between a Genever and a Gin. VL92 YY is non-chill filtered to preserve its full aroma. This may also lead to fine sediments at the base of the bottle. It is natural and not a sign of minor quality. Only 1050 bottles produced.
