Distiller Notes
In creating this classic American gin, Leopold Bros. sought to honor each ingredient's distinctive profile through the meticulous practice of fractional distillation, where each element is distilled individually. Through this method, they capture the brightness ofPomelos and valencia oranges, the savory notes of coriander and cardamom, and the gentle foundation of juniper berries and orris root. After completing six separate distillations of intentionally sourced botanicals and citrus elements, they bring the distillates together to become this uniquely welcoming spirit.

Enjoying an enthusiastic resurgence in modern cocktail culture, Gin, a.k.a. ‘Dutch Courage,’ was originally touted as a 16th century cure for cowardice and stomach ailments. Arguably the broadest and most dynamic category of spirits in terms of flavor profiles and production styles, Gin is a distilled grain spirit that derives its primary flavor from juniper berries and secondary flavors from a dazzling array of spices, herbs, fruits and botanicals. It is both produced and enjoyed all around the world and is most commonly mixed into cocktails such as the Martini or simply added to tonic water.
