Read MoreHusband-and-wife dynamic distiller duo, Kristina Hansen and Darren Case, returned to their native Maine from Brooklyn five years ago to create a gin that captures the experience of being in Maine in the summertime.

Ever wonder what goes on behind the scenes in a distillery? Adam takes some time to walk us through his digs and then sits down to taste through some bottles. It’s a mini master class for K&L customers.
