Produced in the Warwick Valley Winery & Distillery, the first licensed New York distillery after the Prohibition years, Brooklyn Gin is distilled from local wheat and infused with hand-crushed juniper berries, freshly peeled citrus peels and botanicals from around the world. Clean and balanced, Brooklyn offers fresh fruit notes supported by a strong juniper base, which blends perfectly with the dry finish. Main botanicals: Juniper, lavender, cocoa, coriander and angelica root.
Won a double gold medal at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition 2016, a double gold medal at the New York World Wine & Spirits Competition 2015, a gold medal at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition 2015, a gold medal in Craft Craft 2015 and 91 points and an "Excellent, Highly Recommended" rating in the 2015 Final Spirit Challenge.
Fresh citrus fruits and juniper of the highest quality are used.

Hand-cut citrus fruits and essential oil extracts of juniper berries, thus creating a gin that is livelier than distillers who use frozen or dried citrus peels.
In 2010 and in affinity with the artisans who embody the spirit of Brooklyn, the founders, Emil Jättne and Joe Santos, decided to hand-produce a small-series, high-quality American gin. Since then, the company they built around this guiding principle has remained proudly independent and deliberately small.
Unlike mass-produced factory gins, Brooklyn Gin is made by hand, with time and effort, still using a Christian Carl copper pot. Each batch produces 300 bottles of gin and the process takes three days. The distillation of Brooklyn Gin uses only locally purchased fruit and a base spirit made with 100% American corn sourced from small farms.
The company got its start in the wake of the financial crisis. At that time, due to limited resources, they were unable to build their own distillery. They were lucky enough to find an amazing partner just out of town in the Hudson Valley to help bring their vision of an artisanal, small-batch American gin to life. Made and bottled at the Warwick Valley Winery and Distillery in Warwick, New York.
