The recipe uses fourteen botanicals sourced from six continents — including toasted mesquite bean from South Texas, white sage, galangal, cardamom from Guatemala, anise from Turkey, allspice, rose hips, orange peel, lemon peel, lemon verbena, orris root and angelica root alongside the juniper — run through a step maceration in which each botanical is steeped on its own schedule before they are distilled together slowly, then rested and tasted before release. The base is distilled from Texas corn and proofed with captured rainwater. Bottled at 44% ABV (88 proof) in a 750mL bottle embossed with botanicals. It is available to order online at Del Mesa Liquor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProof \/ ABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 88 proof (44% ABV)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBotanicals:\u003c\/strong\u003e 14 botanicals from six continents, incl. toasted mesquite bean\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDistillery:\u003c\/strong\u003e Trinity River Distillery, Fort Worth, Texas\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750mL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Texas, USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAmerica's Craft Gin, Texas-Born\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNamed for the mesquite tree — the \"Devil's Tree\" of South Texas — Devil's Grin was designed so the flavor evolves across the palate instead of spiking: a gentle ascension that avoids palate fatigue.
