Elysian Fields Lavender Gin

Colored naturally with butterfly pea flower, our Elysian Fields Lavender has a magical color changing property when it's mixed with citrus. It’s made with local Long Island lavender and honey.

Flavor profile: prevalent and pleasant lavender across the palette, citrus on the front, spice on the back, and honey on the tail end to smooth it all out.

Traditional gin botanicals provide the foundation for the lavender and honey notes, and combined with the beautiful color of butterfly pea flower, this spirit appeals to all the senses.

The lavender note is prevalent and present, and offers a unique alternative in most traditional gin cocktails. With the booming at-home cocktail trend, this gin allows people to make cocktails on their own that look and taste like bar quality cocktails no matter what their experience with cocktail making is.

Short Path Acadia Gin

Made in Massachusetts. Crafted in handmade, direct-fire copper pot stills. This gin is a blend of juniper,

wild Maine blueberries, coriander, lemongrass, lavender, eucalyptus, and orris root.

Perfect in a Tom Collins, Negroni, or as a substitute in your favorite classic gin cocktail.

Ólafsson Icelandic Gin

Ólafsson Icelandic Gin is a critically acclaimed, small-batch spirit produced by Eyland Spirits that captures the rugged, pristine essence of Iceland's landscape. The brand honors Eggert Ólafsson, a beloved 18th-century Icelandic explorer, naturalist, and poet who famously mapped the country's culture and geography.

Flavor Profile & Key Ingredients

What sets Ólafsson Gin apart is its base of pure, lava-filtered Icelandic water, which features a high natural pH and minerality that yields a velvety, exceptionally smooth texture. The gin balances a classic juniper and grain backbone with distinct hand-selected, native Arctic botanicals:

  • Native Arctic Thyme: Lends a complex, slightly floral, and green herbal aroma.

  • Icelandic Birch: Provides a crisp, clean, woodsy depth.

  • Mountain Moss: Adds a unique, grounding, and earthy element.

  • Citrus & Earthy Spices: The finish features subtle hints of lime zest, fresh ginger, and the nutty bitterness of angelica root.

Ólafsson Gin Rosé is a premium, craft pink gin produced by Eyland Distillery in Iceland. It builds on the brand's original recipe by incorporating a delicate blend of botanicals—including Arctic thyme, birch, mountain moss, juniper berries, and real rose petals—giving the spirit a natural, soft blush hue.

Key Details & Tasting Notes

  • ABV: Typically bottled at 42% (with some variations at 40%).

  • Aroma & Palate: Fresh juniper opens the palate, followed by crisp, floral undertones, wild berries, a touch of citrus zest, and the earthy complexity of native Icelandic botanicals.

  • The Water: Distilled using pure, lava-filtered Icelandic water for a remarkably smooth, satiny, and clean finish.

Acadia Gin

Whether it’s sharing conversations over drinks or exploring the rich history of our native land, our creations are fueled by the threads that connect us. One of North America’s only indigenous fruits, wild Maine blueberries stand out for their distinctive flavor and abundance. They have naturally adapted to Maine’s unique climate and cover the coast of Acadia National Park. One sip of Acadia Gin connects a short path between you and the majestic taste of Maine.

Unfiltered for elevated flavor.

History
Acadia 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
Acadia Gin is first crafted using a blend of Juniper, orris root, coriander, lemongrass, lavender, and eucalyptus. Sound familiar? These are most of the same botanicals found in our flagship Gin. The difference is that we dial back the amount of lavender and eucalyptus used, and creating a less floral result. We also add orris root to help bring out the blueberry notes. We then soak wild Maine blueberries into the gin for 10 days, remove the blueberries and proof the spirit. Voila, Acadia 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, Acadia Gin will occasionally exude a cloudy or hazy appearance, or sediment may be visible. Have no fear, this is completely natural.
