With a rich history that began in the\nvineyards of California, Crispin's journey in winemaking evolved into a\ndistinguished career in distillation. Under the tutelage of cognac\nvirtuoso Hubert Germain-Robin, Crispin mastered ancient techniques that\nnow define his artistry in creating exceptional spirits.\n\n\U0001f943\xa0Prosperous & Penniless Barrel-Aged Gin\n\nMasterfully crafted by Crispin Cain, this gin undergoes a transformative\njourney. Distilled in a traditional Cognac pot still with a rich\ntapestry of botanicals, it ages gracefully in Bourbon and Limousin oak\nbarrels, finishing in Chardonnay casks. The result is a golden-hued\nspirit, redolent with coriander, honey, and lemon, and a palate that\nweaves juniper with caramel and spiced oak. A true embodiment of\ncomplexity and elegance.\n\n\U0001f943\xa0Prosperous & Penniless Bourbon Whiskey\n\nCrispin Cain's Bourbon is a study of balance and refinement. It matures\nin Missouri Bourbon barrels with a mash bill rich in corn and malted\ngrains before finishing in Cabernet Sauvignon barrels. The whiskey\ngreets you with aromas of sweet corn and vanilla, unfolding into a\npalate of toasted oak, butterscotch, and spiced plums. It's a harmonious\nblend of tradition and innovation.\n\n\U0001f943\xa0Prosperous & Penniless Rye Malt Whiskey\n\nThis Rye Malt Whiskey showcases Crispin Cain's mastery of distillation\nand aging. Starting with a robust rye and wheat malt base, it ages in\nnew Bourbon barrels, then Cognac and Cabernet Sauvignon barrels. The\nresult is a golden, aromatic spirit with notes of toasted grain and\nhazelnuts, leading to a rich palate of melon, vanilla, and leather. It's\na luxurious expression of time-honored distilling techniques.\n\nCrispin's creations are not just spirits; they are stories of heritage,\nskill, and a relentless pursuit of perfection. Experience the\nculmination of centuries-old distillation methods and modern flair with\n'Prosperous & Penniless.\n\nBe the first to taste:\nhttps://shopspirits.calistogadepot.com/collections/prosperous-penniless
