The World Gin Awards
Every year, we submit our gins to the World Gin Awards. With each gin competing in its respective category, contemporary, matured (or aged), and navy strength.
For Gin Distillers, this is the global academy awards and we are proud to share that all of our gins have received medals. We are especially honored to have Conniption Navy Strength earn the "Best American Navy Strength Gin" for a third consecutive year.
Conniption: Modern, Unrivaled gin
Born from a passion for gin that began with gin-soaked olives stolen from a grandfather’s martini, Conniption Gin honors the art of traditional gin distillation while simultaneously embraces modern scientific methods. Conniption Gins are now recognized as the most awarded and among the best distilled in the country.
the art
Pot still distillation has been used for centuries by master distillers to produce world-class gins. We honor these traditions while we expand upon them. Leveraging the vapor infusion method with a custom design tray produces consistent, beautiful flavors in Conniption Gin.
The Science
Our mantra: "Treat botanicals like they should be treated." As the first distillery in the United States to use rotary evaporators, we distill our delicate, fresh ingredients such as cucumbers, honeysuckle flowers and figs without any heat. This cold vacuum-distillation produces clean, true flavors. You'll taste the difference.
