Product Description
Better Man Elysian Fields Lavender Gin is where showstopping visuals meet serious craft. Produced by The Better Man Distilling Co. in Patchogue, Long Island, this gin starts with a base of 100% New York State corn, creating a clean, soft canvas for its botanicals. At 40% ABV (80 proof), it’s deliberately calibrated to be bold enough for mixing yet smooth enough to sip.
What sets Elysian Fields apart is its natural indigo color, derived from butterfly pea flower rather than artificial dyes. Add lemon juice, tonic, or any citrus component, and the pH shift transforms the gin from deep blue-violet to a rosy, sunset pink. It’s an instant centerpiece for cocktails, ideal for home entertainers, bars, and special occasions where presentation matters as much as flavor.
On the nose, the gin opens with a gentle wave of real Long Island lavender, aromatic and floral without drifting into perfumy territory. The first sip brings bright citrus notes supported by classic gin botanicals, followed by a subtle thread of spice that keeps the palate from feeling overly sweet or one-dimensional. Local honey comes through on the finish, softening the edges and leaving a smooth, lightly sweet echo rather than a sugary aftertaste.
In the glass, Elysian Fields Lavender Gin is highly versatile. Use it in a Lavender Bees Knees with lemon juice and simple syrup for a floral twist on a Prohibition classic, or build a simple gin and tonic with a squeeze of lemon to show off the color change. For more adventurous drinkers, it can stand in where crème de violette or other floral components would usually appear, giving cocktails both hue and structure rather than just sweetness.
Gluten-free, visually striking, and crafted with local ingredients, Better Man Elysian Fields Lavender Gin is designed for drinkers who want their gin to taste distinctive, look memorable, and perform beautifully in modern cocktail culture.
