Castle & Key Roots of Ruin Gin is a Kentucky gin crafted with eight complex botanicals — built on the distillery's rye-whiskey newmake base and vapor distilled, with chamomile, ginger, and rosemary giving it a bright, distinctive flavor profile. 106 proof (53% ABV).
Roots of Ruin starts from a base of Castle & Key's rye-whiskey newmake (mashbill 17% yellow corn, 63% rye, 20% malted barley), then draws bright, complex flavor from eight vapor-distilled botanicals. The three most distinctive to Castle & Key — chamomile, ginger, and rosemary — give the gin its signature character, while juniper, licorice root, lemon verbena, coriander, and angelica root round it out.
