The Moonshot Gin comes as one of the more prestigious gin liquors on the market that has been crafted from ingredients that have experienced the vacuum of space. Botanicals including coriander, juniper, fresh lemon peel and cubeb pepper were added into a container alongside actual moon rocks before being launched into the stratosphere. This exposed the ingredients to an immense level of pressure that is purported to have enhanced them with a certain level of flavor and charm before being used to craft the final libation.
The Moonshot Gin liquors are available for purchase in the UK from Firebox or in the US from Master of Malt with the price set at a relatively low point to make it a libation capable of being enjoyed by anyone.
