With a rich history that began in the vineyards of California, Crispin's journey in winemaking evolved into a distinguished career in distillation. Under the tutelage of cognac virtuoso Hubert Germain-Robin, Crispin mastered ancient techniques that now define his artistry in creating exceptional spirits. 🥃 Prosperous & Penniless Barrel-Aged Gin Masterfully crafted by Crispin Cain, this gin undergoes a transformative journey. Distilled in a traditional Cognac pot still with a rich tapestry of botanicals, it ages gracefully in Bourbon and Limousin oak barrels, finishing in Chardonnay casks. The result is a golden-hued spirit, redolent with coriander, honey, and lemon, and a palate that weaves juniper with caramel and spiced oak. A true embodiment of complexity and elegance. 🥃 Prosperous & Penniless Bourbon Whiskey Crispin Cain's Bourbon is a study of balance and refinement. It matures in Missouri Bourbon barrels with a mash bill rich in corn and malted grains before finishing in Cabernet Sauvignon barrels. The whiskey greets you with aromas of sweet corn and vanilla, unfolding into a palate of toasted oak, butterscotch, and spiced plums. It's a harmonious blend of tradition and innovation. 🥃 Prosperous & Penniless Rye Malt Whiskey This Rye Malt Whiskey showcases Crispin Cain's mastery of distillation and aging. Starting with a robust rye and wheat malt base, it ages in new Bourbon barrels, then Cognac and Cabernet Sauvignon barrels. The result is a golden, aromatic spirit with notes of toasted grain and hazelnuts, leading to a rich palate of melon, vanilla, and leather. It's a luxurious expression of time-honored distilling techniques. Crispin's creations are not just spirits; they are stories of heritage, skill, and a relentless pursuit of perfection. Experience the culmination of centuries-old distillation methods and modern flair with 'Prosperous & Penniless.
