Nao Spirits Launches The Broken Bat Limited Edition Gin

NAO Spirits, the disruptors of the craft gin space in India with their London Dry Gin - Greater Than and India's first Himalayan Dry Gin – Hapusa has launched their limited release- The Broken Bat Gin.

After successfully launching 2 limited release gins(Juniper bomb and No Sleep) over the last 2 years, this is the third limited release of the brand.

A twist on a classic gin that tastes almost like whisky is Nao Spirits own version of a barrel-aged Gin which was created with the idea of appealing to the curiosity of India’s massive population of brown-spirit drinkers. Since there is no history of barrels in India, Team NAO decided to do their version of an aged gin by being inspired from something that is very dear to India and their master distiller, "Cricket Bats".

Greater Than distillers shaved and cleaned cricket bats made with Kashmir Willow and soaked them in a vat of high-proof Greater Than Gin for six weeks resulting in a classic gin that tastes almost like whisky. While the cricket bats were crowd-sourced - lots of people have a broken/chipped bat lying in some corner of their house - they also worked with a bat-maker in Kashmir to source cracked or chipped wood that would otherwise have been wasted.

The Broken Bat Gin is available across Goa(INR 1450), Maharashtra(INR 2400), Karnataka(INR 2450).
