Founded in 2006 by bartender Ryan Magarian and distiller Christian Krogstad in Portland, Oregon, Aviation was born out of a desire to create a highly mixable, botanical-forward gin. The brand gained international acclaim and wider distribution after actor Ryan Reynolds acquired an ownership stake in 2018, championing its distinctively smooth, American style.
Handcrafted in Portland, Oregon, this gin represents a pioneering shift in the American craft spirits movement. The production estate utilizes a unique maceration process of seven distinct botanicals followed by precise distillation in a custom stainless steel pot still.
