Old Pilot’s Barrel Aged Gin 0.05 L brings all the character and richness of barrel-aged gin in a practical, exclusive mini format. Produced in the Croatian craft distillery Duh u boci, this gin is made from the original Old Pilot’s recipe, with slightly adjusted botanical ratios to perfectly suit the maturation process in wood.
At its core are six carefully selected botanicals from Mediterranean and continental Croatia, which after distillation mature in different oak barrels. Each barrel has its own character — different volume, wood type, and toasting level — resulting in an exceptionally layered and rich aromatic profile.
American oak provides warmth, sweetness, vanilla, and discreet smokiness, while Croatian oak contributes refined bitterness and elegant notes of dried fruit. The result is a sophisticated gin that combines botanical freshness with the depth of an aged distillate.
This 0.05 L version is ideal for those who want to discover the Barrel Aged gin style, give something special, or enjoy a premium tasting experience without opening a full-size bottle.
