Elevate Your Holiday Spirits with Three Irresistible Waterloo Gins

This holiday season, whether you’re hosting a cozy gathering or searching for the perfect gift, celebrate with the spirit of Texas Hill Country — Waterloo Gin, where tradition meets innovation in every pour. Handcrafted in the heart of Texas, each expression captures the character of the land and the artistry of small-batch distilling. Whether you’re gifting a connoisseur or toasting with friends, Waterloo Gin Company brings warmth, wonder, and a touch of wild to every celebration with all three of its expressions (available online and in stores): No. 9 Gin, Barrel-Aged Gin, and new Prickly Pear & Rose Gin.

Give the gift of unforgettable flavor—or treat your guests to a bar cart that truly dazzles. All three of Waterloo Gin’s expressions are made using Waterloo’s signature nine botanicals native to Texas (lavender, juniper, grapefruit, pecan, orris root, coriander, anise, ginger, licorice root) which are layered into a limestone-filtered base spirit, creating a truly distinctive profile that reflects both place and craft. Texas-born. Botanically inspired. Elegantly distilled.

Waterloo No. 9 Gin - (GOLD winner, John Barleycorn Awards, Fall 2025)Bright, crisp, and beautifully botanical, No. 9 is the ultimate holiday crowd-pleaser. The flagship expression of Waterloo Gin line, No. 9 gin's clean citrus and lavender notes elevate classic cocktails like the Gin & Tonic, French 75, and Negroni, making it an essential for festive hosting. For gifting, it’s a must-have bottle for anyone who loves artisanal spirits and timeless flavor.

Waterloo Barrel-Aged Gin - (DOUBLE GOLD winner, John Barleycorn Awards, Fall 2025)For the whiskey lover on your list—or the host who wants to serve something unexpected—Waterloo Barrel-Aged Gin brings depth, warmth, and a touch of holiday spice. Rested in medium-char oak barrels for two years (the same way bourbon is aged), it pours with rich layers of vanilla, caramel, and wood-smoked complexity. It has a nutmeg, leather, and cinnamon finish to taste. Serve it neat by the fire, in a Gin Old Fashioned, or wrap it up as a standout and sophisticated holiday gift.

Waterloo Prickly Pear & Rose Gin - NEW!Newly launched in Fall 2025, Waterloo Prickly Pear & Rose Gin is a celebration of color, creativity, and connection. Vibrant, floral, and elegantly fruit-forward, this expression adds a festive pop to any celebration. With notes of cactus fruit, hibiscus, rose petals, and a hint of citrus, it’s a spirit as beautiful as it is bold. Enjoy aromatic hints of fresh lavender, which open the experience, unfolding into bright grapefruit, nutty pecan, and classic juniper. The result is a balanced gin that’s as bold as it is elegant — perfect for sipping straight or elevating cocktails. Pour it over ice, top with tonic, and let the pink glow light up your holiday table. Its rosy hue and soft botanical sweetness shine in spritzes, punch bowls, and sparkling holiday cocktails. It’s also a stunning gift for the entertainer who adores color, creativity, and cocktails that turn heads.
