Why Liquor Geeks recommends it
This is a Vermont gin from Caledonia Spirits built around a simple, memorable idea: juniper up front, balanced by the floral richness of raw honey. Distilled in a custom-built botanical extraction still and bottled at 45% ABV (90 proof), it opens with a bright, invigorating juniper nose. The palate reads as classic, well-defined gin, with honey adding a gentle floral sweetness alongside herbal and citrus notes. The finish is smooth, with that honeyed floral character lingering softly. It suits two kinds of drinkers well: the gin fan who wants a contemporary bottle that still tastes unmistakably of juniper, and the home bartender looking for a base that makes a Bee's Knees or Honey Basil Smash feel made for the glass. We carry it because it has a genuine point of view on the shelf. It is a heartfelt tribute to the bees of the Northeast that delivers real balance rather than novelty, and it is just as at home in a crisp Martini as in a G&T.
Pairs well with
- Goat cheese with honeycomb — The tangy cheese and honeycomb echo the gin's raw-honey floral sweetness while the juniper cuts through the richness.
- Lemon-herb roast chicken — Bright citrus and fresh herbs on the plate mirror the herbal and citrus notes that run through the palate.
- Summer garden party — A rosemary-garnished G&T made with this gin's bright, invigorating juniper makes a refreshing pour for warm afternoons outdoors.
