Far North Spirits Solveig Gin

A Gin for those who think they don't like Gin.

Far North Spirits was conceived by Michael Swanson and Cheri Reese upon returning home to pursue a simpler life. When "home" is the Red River Valley and a farm that is in its 4th generation of Swansons, producing quality rye and heirloom corn, "a simpler life" can only mean one thing ― distilling some proper Spirits. At the northernmost distillery in the US, we might add. Surrounded by super-fertile soil, nestled in a former wheat field just 25 miles from the Canadian border, they produce craft Gin, Rum, Vodka, and Whiskey ― all using grains they grow themselves.

Far North Spirits Solveig Gin is a New American Style Gin. It’s unique, lush, and verdant. Distilled with 8 botanicals including red grapefruit, organic thyme, and lavender, this was their first release. It was actually inspired by the smell of a lush and green prairie after rain in early June. This means it’s soft, ethereal, and lightly floral with citrus notes that complement the juniper flavors. They say this is a Gin for those who don’t think they like Gin.
