Distiller's Background:

Wes Panther founded Ancestors Distilling in Fort Collins, Colorado, as a tribute to generations of family steeped in the spirits world—from Kentucky moonshiners to Brown-Forman executives. After years spent distilling award-winning gin, vodka, and whiskey across the American South, Wes returned home to the Rockies to establish his distillery rooted in craft, history, and a reverence for tradition. Ancestors Distilling Colorado Gin represents the culmination of that journey, crafted with clarity, complexity, and a distinct sense of place.

Serving Suggestions:

Serve chilled or over ice at 50–55°F to highlight its floral and citrus aromatics. Perfect in a classic Martini with a lemon twist, a refreshing Tom Collins, or a crisp Gin & Tonic with a sprig of rosemary. Its balance also makes it an excellent base for more creative, modern cocktails featuring herbs, fruit, or tea infusions.

Ancestors Distilling Colorado Gin is a masterclass in botanical harmony, award-winning and mountain-born. With its elegant profile, versatile applications, and unmistakable character, it’s a gin that raises the bar for American craft spirits.
