About Us

As it says on our bottle, Staple Gin was conceived over the perfect collection of nights around the table, with friends, good food and plenty of libations. Our gin is distilled with juniper, coriander, orris root, Castelvetrano olives, dried bergamot peel, tarragon and extra virgin olive oil or E.V.O.O. as one of our founders so lovingly coined.  On the palate, juniper is at the forefront, complemented by vibrant citrus notes of lemon and orange zest, a hint of spice from coriander and a slight earthy sweetness from the tarragon and white flowers. The Castelvetrano olive adds a round mouthfeel with a touch of salinity on the finish.

Staple was the named highest ranked American gin included in VinePair’s “30 Best Gins for 2024” guide, with a rating of 94 points and won Double Gold with 96 points at the 2024 New York International Spirits Competition.

Staple Gin is distilled in the peaceful town of Roscoe, NY which is nestled between two pristine rivers, the Beaverkill and the Willowemoc, Just two hours outside New York City, Roscoe is the birthplace of American fly fishing and the home to the award winning distillery Do Good Spirits, a veteran owned business.

The goal of Do Good Spirits has always been to make the highest quality spirits representing the quality of New York State agriculture, supporting their local community and to share a message of thanks for those who have fallen in service. That is why a portion of the proceeds from the sale of Staple Gin will support the Third Option Foundation, a 501(c)(3) dedicated to providing comprehensive family resiliency programs, working behind the scenes to quietly help those who quietly serve.
