PORTLAND, OR, July 2, 2024 – Stillweather Spirits, a family-owned and operated distillery in the greater Portland area, proudly announces the release of their newest creation: American Sunset Gin. This barrel-rested gin is a testament to the artistry and dedication of co-owners Erin and Jeff D’Achino, who have been crafting premium spirits since 2018.

American Sunset Gin begins with Stillweather’s award-winning American Gin, which is then rested in ex-rum barrels. This process infuses the gin with a warm tone, subtle vanilla, and beautiful toasted aromatics, complementing the crisp juniper, deep citrus, and hearty pepper notes that define Stillweather’s signature gin. The result is a full-bodied and extremely adaptable spirit, perfect for sipping neat or as a base for stunning cocktails.

The rum barrels add a richness and depth that e our customers  love.”
