Dry Fly Gin - #8 of Best Gin Brands

Dry Fly Gin

Based out of Spokane, Washington, Dry Fly Gin makes a conscious effort to use locally-sourced items. This includes ingredients and botanicals that are placed in a copper still that will end up producing just 4,000 cases per year. Those botanicals, which include lavender, coriander, mint and the ever-present juniper, are often combined with apples and hops after the distillation process to inject an enticing aroma that stands alone in the world of dry gin. Once it reaches the palate, the apples help bring out the subtle citrus features. That leads to a more robust and complicated taste before the finish offers a dry coda of delight that can be enjoyed by all The end result is a rare commodity that's a viable option, which adds some real spice when it comes to martinis, as well as the standard gin and tonic. The options for further exploration here seem unlimited.
