Castle & Key Harvest Gin brings the warmth and depth of fall and winter to your glass. Crafted with a blend of botanicals that evoke the season, it features notes of cedar, licorice, dark berries, fennel, clove, and soft pepper.
Originally a seasonal favorite, Harvest Gin is now a year-round expression that celebrates balance, spice, and complexity. Enjoy it in a spiced Negroni, gin Old Fashioned, or simply with tonic and a twist of orange.
Distilled and bottled at our historic Kentucky distillery, Harvest Gin reflects the artistry of flavor and the comfort of the season.

The Old Taylor Distillery has a revered place in Kentucky distilling history. In 1887, when Colonel Edmund Haynes Taylor Jr. built the distillery, he intended it to both produce high-quality spirits and stand out from the crowd with its distinctive architectural charm to become the birthplace of bourbon tourism. Inspired by European architecture, the site features a Castle, a classical Springhouse, and Sunken Garden. In 1920, however, Prohibition forced the closing of the distillery and over the course of the next century, the property changed owners and occupants several times, until it fell into ruin.
In 2014, Will Arvin (the modern founder of Castle & Key) began restoring this historic bourbon icon with a focus on changing the narrative around Kentucky spirits. He created a team of likeminded people from inside and outside the industry to resurrect the castle by creating Castle & Key Distillery, which opened its doors in 2018. Taking up Colonel Taylor’s dedication to his home state, Castle & Key strives to use local ingredients when possible. Castle & Key makes everything that they sell from carefully selected grains and always chooses to do things in a thoughtful way – even when it’s not the easy way.
