Gray Whale Gin
Gray Whale Gin is a California-made gin with botanicals sourced along the migratory path of the California Gray Whale which begins in the Arctic and ends in Baja California. All botanicals used here are hand harvested, wild foraged, or organically farmed along this route.
These include juniper (Big Sur), limes, lemons, and oranges (Baja California), fir tree needles (Sonoma Valley), Kombu sea kelp (Mendocino Coast), mint (Santa Cruz), and almonds (Central Valley). Proceeds from sales benefit Oceana to protect and restore the world's oceans.

Modern GinAlso has been referred to as "Contemporary", "New Western", "New Wave", and "New American". This style is not legally defined. In general, this category of gin, while it does contain juniper, places less of an emphasis on this botanical. Other botanicals not classically used in London Dry gins are often utilized and often highlight botanicals grown in the region the gin is produced. Most produced as either London Dry or Distilled Gins.

Tasting Notes
"This gin makes an impression from the moment you open it. The juniper is present, but the citrus notes make the biggest impression and the fir tree needles are a nice addition. The mint is a lovely top note. As you taste the gin, you'll find it to be full and a touch sweet. But the juniper adds a pleasant punch. This is a gin that could handle any preparation, but try it on the rocks with a snack of briny olives on the side. "
