Gin (700 ml)

Siam Lanna Gin is produced in Chiang Mai, the cultural and agricultural heartland of Northern Thailand, where the cooler highland climate — elevations above 300 metres, distinct dry and wet seasons — allows aromatic herbs and florals to develop concentrated essential oils rarely found in lowland-grown botanicals.

The distillery draws its botanical identity directly from the Lanna agricultural tradition: lemongrass, butterfly pea flower, and locally foraged highland herbs form the core bill, replacing the juniper-dominant template of London Dry with a Southeast Asian botanical architecture.

This is a deliberate departure — the producers position Siam Lanna not as a European gin made in Thailand, but as a Thai spirit that happens to use gin's distillation framework.

The gin is produced via pot-still distillation with botanicals sourced from Northern Thai farms, bottled at a standard craft ABV. Butterfly pea flower contributes the gin's visually distinctive blue-violet hue, which shifts to pink-purple on contact with acidic mixers — a built-in chromatic signature no botanical substitution can replicate.

This expression is an entry point into the Chiang Mai distilling scene that has emerged since the mid-2010s.
