The ultimate citrus-forward American gin for craft cocktails
An incredibly smooth, soft, and balanced gin that redefines the category with its botanical forwardness. Lavender, cardamom, and sarsaparilla take center stage while juniper plays a supportive, subtle role in the background.

Founded in Portland in 2006, Aviation American Gin is famously associated with actor Ryan Reynolds, who acquired an ownership stake in 2018. Reynolds played a pivotal role in catapulting the brand to global fame before its acquisition by Diageo.
Aviation Gin was born in Portland, Oregon out of a unique collaboration between bartender Ryan Magarian and House Spirits Distillery. It represents a shift from traditional London Dry style gins by leaning heavily into regional, botanically complex profiles.
