Aviation American Dry Gin 750mL

“I’ve tried every gin on the planet and Aviation is, hands down, the best.
Also, I don’t recommend trying every gin on the planet. Stick with this one.”

Ryan Reynolds, Owner, Aviation American Gin

Every bottle of Aviation Gin is handcrafted in small batches by a dedicated team of master distillers in Portland, Oregon. Like the worlds finest gins, Aviation is distilled using a proprietary maceration recipe that produces a pure medley of botanical flavor.

STEP 1: INFUSION
STEP 1: It all starts with our precise blend of botanicals, sourced from around the world cardamom, coriander, French lavender, anise seed, sarsaparilla, juniper, and two kinds of orange peel. The botanicals are placed in nylon sacks and suspended in a pure, neutral grain spirit for 18 hours in macerating tanks.

STEP 2: DISTILLATION
The macerate is then pumped into a still along with pure water. Steam jackets heat the macerate, the vapors go into the condenser, which cools the vapors to form the gin distillate.

STEP 3: THE CUT
In a meticulously monitored process, the first fluid leaving the still, the heads, is removed. Collecting the heart of the spirit throughout the run, the distillers then determine the end of the cycle and make the final cut, the tails. This process takes approximately 7 hours and at this point, the heart cut is 142 proof.

STEP 4: BLENDING & BOTTLING
The heart cut is transferred to a blending tank where pure water is added, bringing the gin to the desired 84 proof. It is then sent to the bottling line for filling, capping, and labeling. A craft production from beginning to end, Aviation is then hand-packed into boxes and ready to ship.
