The US craft distillation movement has come a long way in recent years, especially for gin. No longer seen as the lesser of the white spirits, US gin is contributing not only to the conversation but also to the glass. 

Unlike many other spirits... I'll start that again. Unlike many other spirits, gin is in the unique position to be able to capture the true sense of place through the use of local botanicals. It is a liquid that can express the essential character and spirit of a particular locale.

One such gin that is embracing the flavours that be found on its doorstep is St. George distilleries Terroir Gin expression. To find out more, we talked to Lance Winters, president and master distiller for St. George Spirits about their botanical gin, its distillation, and how it can be used.
