Made right here in San Francisco, No. 209 Gin is the only distillery in the world that is built over water – on the renovated Pier 50. Besides putting them in the shadow of AT&T Park, home of the 2014 World Series Champion San Francisco Giants, the natural cooling properties of 13 feet of San Francisco Bay water beneath the pier keeps the air temperature in the distillery perfect for distilling year-round.
No. 209 Gin is a small-batch, handcrafted spirit that opens with a beautifully aromatic nose of predominately citrus and floral notes with a hint of spiciness. First across the palate are the citrus high notes, with lemon followed by a hint of orange. As the spirit warms in the mouth, delicate floral notes are liberated from the bergamot and coriander. Mid-palate, there is a pepper-like warmth from the emerging cardamom and juniper. As the cardamom continues to bloom across the palate mint-like components further emerge. The cassia and other warm spice notes become prominent on the finish. The cassia in particular lingers, encouraging another sip.
