Savannah, GA – New Realm Distilling is excited to announce the launch of its Strawberry Gin, a limited quantity small batch release featuring gin distilled with local farm-fresh strawberries and Wildflower honey. New Realm has been distilling a variety of spirits in Savannah since opening that location in 2021. The company began its distilling operations in Atlanta in 2019. 

“I am pumped to be releasing this small batch into the market both in Savannah and in Atlanta,” said Kevin Ford, Head Distiller for New Realm. “This is a great first pick in a series of small batch spirits and really offers the palate a mouthful of delicious, ripe Georgia strawberries. Gin enthusiasts both new and old will find this a very refreshing spirit whether they enjoy it on the rocks or in a cocktail.” 

New Realm’s Strawberry Gin is a friendly sipper with notes of juniper, citrus and ripe strawberries. A small batch, it is distilled to the highest quality and rested on wild Savannah strawberries and finished with a touch of Savannah Bee Company® Wildflower honey for a true taste of summertime.

“I am extremely proud of what our distilling team and what they have accomplished over the past several years,” said Carey Falcone, Co-Founder and CEO of New Realm. “We are excited to take our spirits program to the next level. Along with our Small Batch Series, Kevin and his team have been distilling New Realm Bourbon, Rum, Gin, and Vodka. This release is the first of several limited releases in the works, it is a very cool time for our team.”

New Realm Brewing & Distilling locations not only brew and serve craft beer made in house under the watchful guidance of Brewmaster Mitch Steele, but also showcase cocktail creations made from all New Realm distilled spirits. To showcase the new Strawberry Gin, our taproom teams have concocted a very refreshing “Strawberry Gin Fizz” which is available on the menu in both Georgia locations.

The limited release of Strawberry Gin will be available while bottles last. Each bottle is hand numbered, wax dipped and features a unique label with hand drawn art by a SCAD-trained local artist. The bottles will be available in our Atlanta and Savannah locations – and fans can be the first to know by visiting newrealmbrewing.com and joining the Atlanta/Savannah email list OR by downloading the New Realm app.
