A slight struggle here as the mouthfeel gets a bit puffy here with the dry peat and oak

Sipsmith VJOP Gin CAHORS as the land quickly risesReleased in 2013, this gin bottling is called "VJOP" which stands for "Very Junipery Over Proof." During production, a large amount of juniper is added (3x more than their standard London Dry) and the gin undergoes a "triple juniper" process, including a three day maceration. This gin is perfect in a G&T with Mediterranean Tonic, or in classic cocktails such as a Martini or Aviation, as well as in a twist on the classic Mint Julep.
