St. George Spirits Terroir Gin

St. George Spirits Terroir Gin is a forest-driven, earthy California gin built around a sense of place — a profoundly aromatic gin conveying the monumental tree groves, misty glens, and sun-baked chaparral of the distillery’s favorite local parklands, with Douglas fir, California bay laurel, and coastal sage carrying through.St. George Spirits was established in 1982 in Alameda, California — one of the pioneering craft distilleries of the modern American spirits movement. Terroir is its most place-driven gin: rather than chasing a London Dry juniper-and-citrus signature, it pulls aromatics from the Pacific Coast wild landscape for a woodsy, herbaceous gin that performs across the full cocktail range.Tasting Notes
