Unlike most other gins, where a neutral grain spirit is simply redistilled, Chase's Elegant Gin is created by first pressing cider apples, fermenting the juice into cider, then distilling into Naked Chase Apple Vodka. The spirit is then distilled with 11 carefully considered wild botanicals, including juniper, angelica, orange and lemon peel, hops and elderflower, in a small Carter-Head Still (affectionately named “Ginny”). Finished by the addition of naturally pure water taken from the aquifer that runs underneath Chase's orchards. The resultant flavour is a full bodied, sharp yet fruity gin with tears and true provenance.
