Two Paso Robles alcohol manufacturers introduce a collaborative new gin
PASO ROBLES, Calif. – Calwise Spirits and Firestone Walker Brewing Company announces a collaboration to create a brewery-inspired tweak to the distillery's signature Big Sur Gin named the Old Tom Big Sur Gin.
Calwise Master Distiller Aaron Bergh explains, "Old Tom Big Sur Gin reflects a meeting of the minds, with grapes, grains, and botanicals coming together to create a gin like no other.”
This brewery-distillery project may not have been too surprising as the companies are only separated by about a mile and have a shared appreciation for the liquid arts.
“Aaron is our neighbor and we’ve always admired his creations, so it was a natural collaboration,” offers Firestone Walker's Chief Operating Officer Nick Firestone.
