The distillery will open with the release their Oomaw Gin, a Dutch style gin crafted with a New World twist. This is a gin for passionate gin drinkers, with a juniper forward flavor and 8 additional botanicals for a mellow finish. Botanicals are steeped to fully extract the essential oils for a lighter, more flavorful gin.
“‘Oomaw’ in Hopi is a cloud deity who works in concert with the dragonfly to unlock untapped water sources,” said Cross. “To us, this gin celebrates the clarity of the waters and skies in Ogden Valley, and represents our commitment to distill sustainably.”
New World Distillery emphasizes sustainability at their distillery and they have invested in state-of-the-art stills, cutting-edge fermenters that are temperature controlled, a waste-water evaporator and a recirculating water chiller that recycles 100 percent of their cooling water. Most of the ingredients for their spirits are purchased from local suppliers within a 3-state radius, all waste is recycled, their packaging is re-usable and they are the first commercial business to sign up for the Rocky Mountain Power Subscriber Solar program, making New World Distillery a leader as a zero-waste distillery.
