Hardshore Original Gin

Hardshore750 ml46% ABV

A remarkably fresh, mint and rosemary forward craft gin

A surprisingly complex craft gin formulated with only five select botanicals, highlighted by a distinctive leafy brightness. Its velvety mouthfeel carries a unique, fresh profile of rosemary and mint without any heavy juniper bite.

The story behind it

The maker

Founded by Jordan Milne in Portland, Maine, Hardshore Distilling Company was built on the desire to create remarkably distinctive, grain-to-glass spirits. Milne spent years perfecting a gin recipe that eschewed classic heavy juniper in favor of fresh, locally grown botanicals.

How it is made

Hardshore Original Gin is crafted at the brand's waterfront distillery & production estate in Portland, Maine. It is distilled using a custom-designed copper pot still to preserve the volatile, delicate oils of its signature herbs.
