Burwood Spiced Apple Gin

Burwood Distillery is a Calgary-based craft distillery known for producing small-batch spirits that blend traditional distillation techniques with creative flavour profiles and regional inspiration. Emphasizing quality ingredients and hands-on production, the distillery has become recognized for approachable, character-driven spirits rooted in Alberta craft culture.

Spiced Apple Gin is built on a classic gin base featuring juniper and complementary botanicals, then infused with apple and warming spice elements to create a rich yet refreshing flavour profile. Notes reminiscent of baked apple, cinnamon, clove, and citrus are carefully balanced against the gin’s herbal structure and bright acidity.

Small-batch distillation and careful botanical integration allow the fruit and spice character to enhance rather than overpower the underlying gin. The result is a versatile flavoured gin that works equally well in seasonal cocktails, refreshing long drinks, or simple tonic serves.
