If you're familiar with St. George Absinthe Verte, you already know that distiller Lance Winters has mad skills at creating balanced distillates out of complex botanical formulations. For these three St. George gins, Lance retrofitted his beloved absinthe still with a custom-built Carter head assembly. This allows for elegant expression of the character of the juniper berries and other botanicals, while minimizing resinous and potentially acrid notes from carrying over during distillation. The following three gins (Botanivore, Terroir and Dry Rye) are opulent and unique in style, but all unmistakably gin. Try each one in this great sample pack of 200ml bottles and then come back to get full-sized bottles of your favorites. You’ll be glad you did!

Extra Bonus: St. George is a local business, from Alameda CA.
