Region: Washington

Washington State’s gin scene is a vibrant tapestry woven from the Pacific Northwest’s rich natural bounty and a spirit of innovation. From the misty shores of Puget Sound to the verdant valleys of the interior, distillers are crafting gins that capture the essence of their surroundings, offering a taste of place in every sip.

In Edmonds, Scratch Distillery lives up to its name by creating spirits entirely from scratch, using non-GMO, organic ingredients sourced from Washington. Their commitment to purity and sustainability results in gins that are both distinctive and reflective of the local terroir.

Further south in Gig Harbor, Heritage Distilling Co. stands out as one of the most awarded craft distilleries in North America. Their innovative programs, like the Cask Club and My Batch experiences, invite enthusiasts to engage directly in the distillation process, fostering a deeper connection to the craft.
