Gray Whale Gin is a so-called “contemporary” or “new western” gin, typically noted for reducing the overall role of juniper in their botanical blends, and instead accentuating impressions of fruit and sweetness. In profile, however, Gray Whale doesn’t really go overboard—it stands as an approachable middle ground between gin styles. 

Tasting Notes Of Gray Whale Gin

Nose :

On the nose, Gray Whale Gin is actually fairly classical, with no shortage of fresh juniper berry notes and piney-ness, no doubt accentuated by the presence of fir tree as another botanical. It expresses some mixed notes of grapefruit citrus zest, elderflower, wildflowers and a slightly saline/sea air quality, along with a moderate suggestion of sweetness.

Palate :

On the palate, this is indeed a bit sweeter than your classic London dry gins, but by no means as crazy saccharine as many other new western-style gins, such as the much-maligned New Amsterdam. It features some pretty well-balanced flavors of ruby red grapefruit and Kaffir lime leaves, along with mixed peppercorns and the warming sense of chamomile tea. All in all, it’s not lacking in character, but nor is it really trying to reinvent the wheel. Alcohol heat is moderate, dialed in to about where you’d expect for the 43% ABV (86 proof).

The name pays homage to the grand migration of gray whales along the California coast. Just as these magnificent creatures journey across the ocean, Gray Whale Gin captures the spirit of adventure and the beauty of nature in every sip.

Perhaps this is thanks to its relatively smaller roster of California-sourced botanicals, which include juniper, kombu, almonds, limes, fir tree and mint. In an era when a lot of craft gins brag on having a dozen or more botanicals involved, a mere six seems notably focused.

This new uniquely Californian gin is the brain child of Chef and Culinary TV Personality Marsh Mohktari. He set out to make a one of a kind London Dry style gin that exhibited the wonderful bounties of the great State of California.

Using the majestic Gray Whale and its migratory path along the 800+ miles of California coast as a symbol for the diversity of ingredients foraged and farmed from local sources, they capture the essence of both our great state and what drinking gin is all about, having fun!
