Cutwater Old Grove Gin

Cutwater Old Grove Gin is the house gin from Cutwater’s San Diego distillery — an 88-proof London Dry-style gin produced with freshly cracked juniper berries for a rich, earthy botanical character influenced by the semi-arid coastal terroir of Southern California, forming the base of the brand’s award-winning Gin & Tonic canned cocktail and a versatile stand-alone gin for cocktails and sipping.

Old Grove takes its name and inspiration from the old-growth juniper of the Pacific region. The freshly cracked juniper approach — rather than dried or pre-processed berries — produces a more vivid and expressive botanical character than standard gin production achieves, resulting in a gin with genuine earthy and piney depth alongside the classic London Dry citrus and floral notes.
