About this bottle

The family that started Black Button came from four generations of making buttons for suits. Head distiller Jason Barrett as a kid used to sort the buttons, but the family discovered he was color blind since he sorted them all as black buttons. The distillery is based in Rochester and sources all of its ingredients from local New York farms. The Lilac Gin is only made once a year.

Didn't quite do it for me. Lilac aroma is strong, and almost soapy to me. Taste not much different. Does a good job in an aviation or water lily, where you've got the creme de violette amping up the floral flavors, but I wouldn't drink this neat and think it won't stand up to stronger flavored cocktails.
