In 2005, however, founder Brett VanderKamp added a still to his brewery and began distilling spirits. “Distilling was a natural extension for us,” says VanderKamp.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nReleased in early 2016, Knickerbocker Blueberry Gin starts as New Holland Brewery and Artisanal Spirits’ Knickerbocker Gin, which is twice distilled with a dozen unique herbs and botanicals, including juniper berries, coriander, angelica root, orange zest, lemon zest, cinnamon, ginger root, orris root, cardamom, fennel, clove and nutmeg.  Following the second distillation, the gin is filtered three times through particulate filters, which remove any remaining impurities and sediment\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nThen, the juniper- and citrus-forward gin is steeped in blueberries harvested between the Havens on the West Coast of Michigan (the so-called blueberry capital of the United States), adding delicate berry notes and a slight, nuanced sweetness. \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nKnickerbocker Blueberry Gin has an aroma of blueberry jam and cardamom, which leads to a palate flush with crisp notes of juniper and spice. The finish is extremely clean, with lingering notes of blueberry muffins and white sugar.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\n“Gin is one of the great frontiers of flavor, where there’s lots of room for creativity and exploration for both the distiller and drinker,” says VanderKamp.
