Short Path Summer Gin

New England summer, captured in a bottle. Crafted in handmade copper pot stills in Everett, Massachusetts, Summer Gin is a blend of wild Maine blueberries, fragrant botanicals, and juniper. The result is an earthy, soothing gin, best enjoyed on a relaxing summer day.

Summer Gin was inspired by the wild juniper and blueberries that line the coast of Acadia National Park in Maine. Co-Founders Jackson and Zack are from Mount Dessert Island, and this spirit captures the essence of summers they enjoyed growing up on the island.

How it’s made
Summer Gin is first crafted using five botanicals: Juniper, coriander, lemongrass, lavender, and eucalyptus. Sound familiar? These are the same botanicals found in our flagship Gin. The difference is that we dial back the amount of lavender and eucalyptus used, creating a less floral result. We then soak wild Maine blueberries into the gin for 10 days, remove the blueberries and proof the spirit. Voila, Summer Gin is here!

Support Local
The wild Maine blueberries used to make Summer Gin are sourced from Blue Sky Produce, who pick their blueberries from 8 different small growers around Maine. As Blue Sky quotes, “supporting small growers enables them to stay in business and to continue being good stewards of their land.”

Why is there sediment in my bottle?
We do not chill-filter any of our spirits. This means they have the full flavor and mouthfeel of their class. As a result, Summer Gin will occasionally exude a cloudy or hazy appearance, or sediment may be visible. Have no fear, this is completely natural. Available in 750 ml.
