Foraged from the high desert. Handcrafted with wild California juniper. Built for unforgettable cocktails, intimate dinners, and drinkers who want something impossible to mass-produce.
We do not make gin from anonymous berries. We harvest wild California juniper from land we are restoring by hand, then bottle the desert: citrus, spice, heat, rain, patience.
Henwill lives in two places: the bottle you bring home, and the one-night-only dinners where food, gin, artists, chefs, and the California landscape meet.
Bring Henwill into your home bar: a bold London Dry built around wild California juniper, citrus, spice, and the structure to carry a serious cocktail.
Our intimate pop-up dinners are part tasting, part chef collaboration, part initiation. Limited seats. One-night menus. Cocktails built around the gin.

We hand-forage wild California juniper near our Pearblossom ranch. Raw, intense, place-specific, and impossible to replicate at industrial scale.
Follow The Ranch 02. The InfusionCitrus peels, lavender, ginger, vanilla, cinnamon, and allspice marry with the piney punch of wild juniper. Taste the profile in the bottle.
Order Henwill Gin 03. The RestorationA portion of every bottle supports restoration work on the land where our juniper grows. The gin begins with a plant. The mission is to plant more.

Henwill is a wild California London Dry Gin built around hand-foraged juniper and a botanical profile that holds its own in a G&T, Negroni, Southside, Martini, or whatever your night demands.
It is bright enough for citrus, structured enough for bitter cocktails, and strange enough to make people ask what they are drinking.
Online alcohol orders are subject to legal age verification, shipping availability, and applicable state laws.
We bring people together around intimate pop-up dinners where chefs build one-night-only menus and every course meets a Henwill cocktail. The event makes the memory. The bottle brings it home.

Unlike commercial gins that rely on imported, dried juniper berries, Henwill Gin is distilled with wild California juniper hand-foraged from our own unirrigated, chemical-free ranch in Pearblossom, CA, located less than 70 miles from our craft distillery. Bottled at 48% ABV (96 proof), it marries piney high-desert juniper with citrus peel, lavender, ginger, vanilla, cinnamon, and allspice.
Henwill Gin opens with bright high-desert juniper, resinous pine, and fresh California citrus peel on the nose, followed by a bold, structured palate of desert lavender, warm ginger, cinnamon, allspice, and subtle vanilla roundness. Bottled at 48% ABV, it finishes crisp, dry, and aromatic, holding its structure in a Negroni, Martini, Southside, or Gin & Tonic.
Henwill Gin is crafted with seven botanicals anchored by wild-foraged California juniper from our Pearblossom high-desert ranch, complemented by citrus peels (including orange peel), lavender, ginger, vanilla, cinnamon, and allspice.
You can order 750ml bottles ($65) and luxury gift boxes ($135) nationwide via henwillgin.com, purchase in-store at Flask Fine Wine & Whisky in Studio City (12194 Ventura Blvd).

After wildfires destroyed half of the mature juniper trees on our Pearblossom high-desert ranch, we launched our Re-Greening initiative. Every bottle of Henwill Gin sold funds the replanting of native junipers and agaves, with a commitment to reestablish our entire ranch ecosystem before 2030. Customers can also directly sponsor an Agave Pup ($8) or Juniper Seedling ($15) to be planted on our regenerative farm.
Order the bottle, reserve a seat at the table, or find us pouring somewhere near you.
