Handcrafted, hand bottled, hand labeled, and hand numbered, this small batch gin is truly unique.

First, it is an American Gin. Master Distiller Todd Leopold handcrafts every batch in a small 40-gallon copper still, blending uniquely American botanicals like hand-zested Florida Oranges and California Pummelos. These components lend citrus notes to the gin, and help distinguish American gins from their English counterparts.

Second, we distill all of our botanicals in fractions, meaning that we distill each component of our gin separately and then blend them together to create the finished spirit. Unlike mass-produced gins where the flavors can appear to be muddled together, and stronger spices such as juniper can overpower the balance of the gin, distilling in fractions allows each individual note to be highlighted. The result is a softer, more refined, and more approachable spirit.

Finally, we craft our gin in small batches, rather than in a continous still. Thus while there is marked consistency from batch to batch, each has its own unique signature - much like fine wine. Each handcrafted batch is unique, yielding only fifty cases of an exceptionally complex yet subtle spirit which both those new to American Gin and the connoisseur will appreciate.

Of course, we would argue that our gin is perhaps best served in a dry martini. But in case you do not happen to be in the mood for a martini, here are a few other recipes for you to try:

Michigin and Tonic
1 1/2 oz. Leopold's Gin
3/4 oz. Leopold Bros. Michigan Cherry Liqueur
First, pour Michigan Cherry Liqueur into an ice-filled lo-ball glass. Then, pour in Leopold's Gin and top with tonic.

Gibson
Pour two ounces of Leopold's Gin into a shaker filled with ice. Shake and strain into a 6 ounce martini glass. Garnish with pearled onions.

Leopold's Cooler
1 Muddle
1 Shaking Tin and Strainer
1 Sixteen Ounce Hi-ball Glass
1 1/2 oz of Leopold's American Small Batch Gin
1/2 oz Simple Syrup
1 Fresh Mint Sprig
1 Lemon
Club soda
Take one mint leave between two hands and smack as if clapping your hands to release the mint oils. Place the mint leaf in mixing tin and muddle gently (without tearing the leaf as this will produee unwanted bitterness).

Squeeze the juice of one whole lemon into the mixing tin and discard the lemon. Add simple sugar next, then the Leopold's American Small Batch gin, then ice to tin. Shake and strain into an ice-filled Hi-ball glass with straw. Smack another mint leaf between your hands and place thge mint leaf on top of the Hi-ball glass as a garnish. Serve chilled.
