Whilst in Red Hook Lynn and I happened upon a liquor store called Dry Dock Spirits. A compact and cozy establishment, Dry Dock Liquors has a hip array of spirits and wine. It was there that I found hard to find bourbons like Ancient Age (a favorite from the south but hard to find in NY) as well as local spirits like Breuckelen Gin from Breuckelen Distilling Company.
The representatives from this establishment let us have a nice shot of this particular hometown spirit. Breuckelen Gin struck us as bracing, old fashioned and a pleasant punch to our pallate....
