Distilled at 4,000 feet in California’s Sierra Nevada, Hinterhaus captures a true sense of place in this vapor-infused gin built on a base of 100% California grapes. Partnering with local vintners for unbottled wine, the distillery redistills it with a selection of botanicals native to the surrounding mountains -juniper, gooseberry, rose hips, elderflower, and ginger root- using pure Sierra Nevada water. The result is a spirit both texturally lush and aromatically refined: floral and soft on the nose, with a silky mouthfeel carrying citrus, rose, and subtle elderflower through the palate before tapering into pine and a delicate ginger spice. At 84 proof, it balances vibrancy with approachability, equally suited for sipping or classic cocktails. Awarded Double Gold and 95 Points at the Sunset International Spirits Competition and named among Wine Enthusiast’s "“11 Favorite Gins for Martinis," South Grove exemplifies Hinterhaus’s modern mountain craftsmanship and its distinctly Californian identity.
