Keep your flakes of gold, worms, snakes or whatever else maybe going into liquor bottles. The Archaeologist gin comes infused with the parts of three classic Harley-Davidsons: 1939 Flathead, 1947 Knucklehead and 1962 Panhead. The brainchild of motorcycle fabricator Uwe Ehinger, nicknamed The Archaeologist for his extensive searches for old and rare bikes, the gins’ story does not end with the parts, but rather just begins.
His travels brought him face to face with these three rare bikes and with each encounter a unique story to accompany the gin. From uncovering the Flathead wasting away in Mexico, a military relic, the Knucklehead in Chile which was once the delivery vehicle for a German pharmacist and finally the Panhead in South Korea. Each story is as unique as the gin and accompanies the custom bottles for the buyer to have their origin stories in detail.
Ehinger’s attention to detail for bikes carries over to the spirit. Its packaging uniquely designed and put together by hand, including the use of a historic Heidelberg printing press. Unfortunately, keeping in line with the visuals of the gin, it will set you back a pretty penny, around $1,000 USD.
