Florida Gin

Our Florida Gin starts with our 100% Florida Wheat Vodka as the base. One of its more distinctive characteristics is the use of juniper berries that grow directly on our distillery property in Northwest Florida. Our local Florida juniper imparts a very mild flavor, which allows the floral botanicals to remain balanced rather than overpowered. We also use honeysuckle, rose, and lavender in our floral-forward gin, alongside fennel, cracked pepper medley, lemon peel, and cucumber. The use of our PureBlend® process allows each botanical to remain distinct while producing a smooth, easy-sipping gin that also works well with tonic.

Gin is defined by the presence of juniper, but regional expressions often reflect local agriculture and climate. In this case, the softer profile of Florida-grown juniper and the use of floral botanicals result in a lighter, less resinous style than many traditional gins. This makes the spirit approachable while still remaining clearly juniper-driven.

Guests interested in how these botanicals are handled during production can see the process firsthand during our distillery tours, where grain selection, botanical preparation, and blending decisions are explained in detail.

What is a Florida Gin?

A Florida gin should represent the best that Florida has to offer. This definition helps distinguish it from gins produced with imported grains, commercial juniper sources, or neutral spirits distilled outside the state.

• Distilled from 100% local Florida grains
• Uses Florida-grown juniper berries
• Uses only Florida limestone spring water
• Aged in the heat and humidity of Florida (if aged)
• Bottled unfiltered to preserve the natural flavors

This combination of factors produces a distinctly rich and uniquely Florida gin that reflects both place and process.
