Waterloo Barrel Aged Gin

Blur the lines between gin and whiskey with Waterloo Barrel Aged Gin (formerly known as Waterloo Antique). Crafted by Treaty Oak Distilling in the Texas Hill Country, this spirit asks the bold question: "What would happen if we aged our gin like bourbon?" The answer is a dark, complex spirit that spends 2 years in first-use medium char American white oak barrels—a process rarely seen in the gin world, where resting periods are typically much shorter.

Starting with the same botanical base as the award-winning Waterloo No.9—featuring pecan, lavender, and grapefruit—this gin transforms during its long maturation. The new charred oak imparts deep amber color and rich flavors of vanilla and nutmeg, creating a "whiskey drinker's gin" that retains a herbal backbone while delivering the weight and warmth of a fine bourbon. Bottled at 94 Proof (47% ABV), it is robust enough to be sipped neat or used to reinvent classic cocktails.

Key Features

  • Producer: Waterloo Gin (Treaty Oak Distilling)
  • Style: Barrel Aged Gin (Aged 2 Years)
  • Proof: 94 (47% ABV)
  • Barrels: New American White Oak (Medium Char)
  • Profile: A cross between New American Gin and Bourbon

Tasting Notes

  • Nose: Rich and inviting with aromas of vanilla bean, nutmeg, and charred oak layered over subtle floral lavender.
  • Palate: Full-bodied and viscous. The oak brings forward flavors of caramel, cinnamon, and toasted wood, while the pecan and grapefruit provide a savory, herbal counterpoint.
  • Finish: Long, smoky, and warming. Notes of cedar, dark spice, and campfire linger on the palate.

Why Choose This Bottle?

  • Unique Aging Process: Aged for 2 years in new char oak (just like bourbon), giving it a darkness and depth that few other aged gins possess.
  • The "Whiskey" of Gins: The perfect crossover spirit for bourbon lovers looking to explore gin, or gin drinkers seeking something heavier for winter.
  • Cocktail Innovation: Swap this into an Old Fashioned or Manhattan for a complex, herbal twist on whiskey classics.
