Distiller’s Notes
Garden Gate Gin
A contemporary dry gin featuring citrus and subtle floral notes that complement the crispness of juniper.
Story: Our Garden Gate Gin is a contemporary dry gin featuring citrus and subtle floral notes that complement the crispness of juniper. It’s crafted exclusively with Wisconsin-grown ingredients, including wheat sourced from the Marx family farm, located about a mile or so from Wollersheim Distillery, and botanicals grown organically at Four Elements farm in the nearby Baraboo Bluffs. In fact, these botanicals—lavender, chamomile, rosemary and lemongrass—were specifically selected for their ability to thrive in our Wisconsin soil. For a uniquely Wisconsin and uniquely Wollersheim experience, enjoy refreshing Garden Gate Gin in a classic G&T or your favorite gin cocktail.
