Vermont Business Magazine The Fed, British-inspired cocktail pub inside The Langham, Boston, and Barr Hill Gin of Vermont, announced today they have partnered to create a signature gin for The Langham, Boston.
“We wanted to work with Barr Hill not just because of their high quality products, but also their locality and the values the company holds,” said Paige McGroarty, Bar Manager at The Fed. “Barr Hill’s product is so unique and we knew this would be a celebrated partnership.”
Known for its hand-crafted cocktails and perfect pints, The Fed resembles a 1920’s era private cocktail lounge paying homage to the building's inception as the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston. This batch of Barr Hill Gin is distilled in their custom-built botanical extraction stills. Heaps of juniper were brought to an elegant balance by the floral depth of raw honey that was harvested local to The Langham, Boston.
"We are thrilled to have partnered with The Langham Boston to create for them a signature Barr Hill Gin variation that represents their local terroir,” said Sam Nelis, Landcrafted Educator at Barr Hill Gin. “The result is a delicious gin that can shine bright in the multitude of thoughtfully crafted cocktails offered at The Fed."
The story of Barr Hill begins with a distiller and a beekeeper working together in one of the most beautiful, agricultural places on Earth, Northern Vermont. Ryan Christiansen and Todd Hardie perfected the use of raw honey in their distillery, capturing the countless botanicals a honey bee forages into their spirits. The honey would always be kept raw to retain the character of the land that inspired them.
To officially launch this partnership, The Fed will be hosting a Gin & Tonic launch party on Thursday, May 18 from 5:00 to 7:00pm. Members from Barr Hill Gin will be in attendance as well as a real enclosed hive and two representatives from Best Bee’s. Tickets are $22 and include a cocktail and snacks.
