State Line Distillery Launches Lapsang Tea Gin

State Line Distillery recently debuted Lapsang Smoked Gin. This new release incorporates Lapsang Souchong tea, a Chinese black tea traditionally smoked over pinewood fires.

“We’re seeing consumers who appreciate the depth of whiskey but want the versatility of gin,” said a State Line Distillery representative in a news release. “Smoked gin bridges that gap by offering familiar smoky complexity through a completely different spirit category. The Lapsang tea creates a foundation that works in everything from martinis to Old Fashioned-style preparations.”

The Lapsang Smoked Gin release follows State Line’s January educational campaign, Give Gin a Chance, which introduced weekly specialty cocktails designed to reshape customer perceptions of gin’s versatility, according to the distillery.
