Their brand pays tribute to the undaunted courage and daring boldness of San Francisco's Lillie Hitchcock Coit, and the see-through bottle incorporates Coit Tower into its shape.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCaravan tea has a storied past. Its leaves are dried over burning pine needles, a 17th-century process that imparts a smoky note in place of traditional air-drying, and the readied tea was carried by camel, with other spices, along the Silk Road to the Russian tsars.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCoit puts the tea in the still, and the distillation captures the rich notes of the Lapsang Souchong leaf. Companion botanicals of green cardamom pods, lavender and Indonesian long pepper carefully frame the tea, giving the gin a titillating smoke note akin to smoke-peated whisky, balanced by aromatic spice.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA gin that dares to be different, it makes a fascinating smoky Negroni or Martini, and a Gin \u0026amp; Tonic with a twist of orange shows off its tea and spice.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Smoky Lapsang Souchong tea, cardamom.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tea, gentle smoke, long pepper, lavender.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Smoky and aromatic.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProducer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Coit Spirits, California\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Contemporary distilled tea gin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTea:\u003c\/strong\u003e Russian Caravan (Lapsang Souchong)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBotanicals:\u003c\/strong\u003e Green cardamom, lavender, Indonesian long pepper\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProof \/ ABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 94 proof (47% ABV)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to Enjoy It\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eStir a smoky Negroni or a Martini, or mix a Gin \u0026amp; Tonic.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhere does the smoke come from?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe tea leaves are dried over burning pine needles.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is Russian Caravan tea?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTea once carried by camel on the Silk Road to the Russian tsars.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat does it taste like?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSmoky tea framed by cardamom, lavender and long pepper.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eExplore more in our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/gin\"\u003eGin collection\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Coit Spirits","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68039729316149,"sku":"VWS200430906","price":30.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0993\/7367\/8901\/files\/noir-gold-main-30591.webp?v=1793834870","url":"https:\/\/hiddencasks.com\/products\/coit-spirits-caravan-gin-750ml","provider":"Hidden Casks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
