Bluecoat Distillery, nestled in the heart of the historic Fishtown neighborhood in Philadelphia on the east coast of the United States, embodies the benchmark for American artisanal premium gin. Housed in a beautifully restored neoclassical building, the distillery blends tradition and innovation to produce a 100% American gin, made from carefully selected botanicals. It is the first artisanal distillery in Pennsylvania since Prohibition. Since its inception, Bluecoat has chosen to celebrate the spirit of the American Revolution through a strong and unique identity, symbolized by its iconic blue bottle, which has become the signature of a gin with a distinct character.
MoreBluecoat draws its inspiration from the history of American patriots, referencing the blue uniforms worn during the War of Independence. This name embodies freedom, daring, and modernity—values that the distillery claims in creating a distinctive gin, contrary to traditional London customs. The ambition is clear: to redefine American gin with a local, authentic approach, and a deep respect for raw materials. Thanks to this strong positioning, Bluecoat is today recognized as a pioneer of American artisanal gin across the Atlantic, attracting spirit enthusiasts in search of new experiences.
To craft its gin, Bluecoat relies on a precise and demanding distillation process, carried out in a custom-designed copper still. This small batch method allows working with high-quality American grains and natural botanicals, including American juniper with delicately spicy notes and fresh citrus, bringing a characteristic freshness. This expertise offers a subtle aromatic profile, both floral and balanced, while maintaining the identity of a modern, accessible, and elegant gin. At its historic site in Philadelphia, Bluecoat thus embodies true craftsmanship, focused on creativity and excellence. Discover other artisanal spirits in our shop.
