About Brooklyn Craft Works

Two industry professionals, one gin from Brooklyn

Brooklyn Craft Works was founded in 2010 by Emil Jättne and Joe Santos. Both had previously worked for large, industrial spirits manufacturers. Then they wanted to make an American gin according to their own rules: by hand, in small batches, and without shortcuts. The company has remained independent and deliberately small to this day.

The name refers to Brooklyn's craft culture. In Germany, Mack & Schühle AG from Owen/Teck brings Brooklyn Gin to market.

Fresh citrus peels, hand-cracked juniper

The working method is simply described and elaborately implemented. The citrus fruits are cut by hand. Only fresh peels are used, never frozen or dried. The founders crack the juniper by hand so that it releases its essential oils. The base is a neutral alcohol made from corn from small American farms.

Distillation takes place in a single copper still from Christian Carl. One batch yields 300 bottles, and the entire process takes three days. Production takes place in the Hudson Valley at the Warwick Valley Winery and Distillery. The founders' dream is to have their own distillery in Brooklyn.

Citrus at the center, juniper as the backbone

Brooklyn Gin has 40% ABV. On the nose, there is juniper, lime, star anise, and orris root. On the palate, lime, orange, and lemon form the core, accompanied by lavender and juniper. The finish brings coriander seeds and dry juniper. The gin is fruit-forward and mild, without losing the classic juniper line.

As a long drink, it pairs well with a Mediterranean tonic with a slice of orange or lemon. It also retains its structure in fruity cocktails. In 2015, the gin received a Double Gold at the New York World Wine & Spirits Competition and Gold at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition.

Brooklyn Craft Works —
Handmade gin from Red Hook, Brooklyn

Brooklyn Craft Works was founded in 2010 by Emil Jattne and Joe Santos in Red Hook, Brooklyn — a neighborhood that has always stood for independent craftsmanship. Their distillery on Bay Street is simultaneously a production facility, tasting room, and bar: you can smell the gin before you drink it.

The Brooklyn Gin is created in a single Christian Carl copper still, each batch takes three days and yields around 300 bottles. The citrus peels are broken fresh and by hand, and the juniper berries are also processed manually. The base is grain spirit made from 100% American corn, sourced from small farms. The result is a gin with a clear citrus note, lively juniper, and a freshness rarely found in industrially produced spirits.

Awarded multiple times — including Double Gold at the New York World Wine & Spirits Competition 2015 — Brooklyn Craft Works stands for what craft distillation means: small quantities, traceable origin, no compromise in the process. Anyone who likes gin that shows what it is will find a clear address here.

Find the right wine faster – with our picks

Row above the wines with the “Our picks” button open and three Super Tuscans

You can now find the right wine faster. Above the wines in every category there is one row that brings it all together: Our picks, Occasion, Goes with, Wine style, Filters and Sort by.

Row above the wines with Filters, Our picks, Goes with, Wine style, Bought before and Sort by; the "Our picks" button is open with "Super Tuscan" selected, next to it Tignanello, Le Volte and Le Serre Nuove

  • Our picks. The "Our picks" button comes first. Choose "Great value" to see wines that deliver more than their price suggests. Some of them have been recognised by Falstaff and other critics for exactly that, the others we have picked for you.
  • Super Tuscans. On the Tuscany page, "Our picks" also takes you to the red cult wines that deliberately broke with the old appellation rules: Tignanello, Ornellaia, Sassicaia, Le Volte, Guado al Tasso and many more, from the first step up to large formats.
  • One tap, one choice. Tap "Occasion", "Goes with" or "Wine style" and pick what you are looking for, such as "Aperitif & spritz" or "Fish". The button then shows what is currently selected.
  • Everything at a glance. Whatever you have selected appears right below. Tap the cross to remove it, or "Clear all" to remove everything at once.
  • Always at hand on your phone. The row stays at the top while you scroll, so you can change filters and sorting without scrolling back up.
  • Bought before. When you are logged in, the "Bought before" switch shows which wines in the category you have already bought from us, online or in the shop. Handy when you want to find a favourite again.
