Summer Sipping with Ryan Reynolds’ Aviation American Gin
The Summer of Aviation American Gin
Aviation American Gin, co-owned by actor and producer Ryan Reynolds, is the world’s highest rated gin and has helped establish a new style of American gin – softer and smoother, with juniper in the background and citrus and floral notes in the front – resulting in more balanced cocktails. Aviation Gin is a small batch, distilled, American Gin that takes its name from the well-known Aviation cocktail, a simple blend of gin, maraschino liqueur and freshly squeezed lemon juice.
