Southern Glazer's Wine & Spirits, the Preeminent Distributor of Beverage Alcohol, to Distribute Staple Gin in New York

NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / August 14, 2024 / Staple Gin, the new recipe-driven spirit from culinary icon Rachael Ray and crafted in the heart of New York's Catskills region by the award-winning team at Do Good Spirits, won Double Gold and a 96 point rating at the 15th Annual New York International Spirits Competition, with Do Good Spirits named New York Gin Distillery of the Year. Staple Gin was also awarded a silver medal with 81 points by the 2024 Bartender Spirits Awards and a silver medal from the New Orleans Spirits Competition.

Staple Gin is now available nationally via e-commerce at www.staplegin.com and in New York State at bars, restaurants and retail destinations via Southern Glazer's Wine & Spirits, with additional markets to follow. Southern Glazer's Wine & Spirits is the world's preeminent distributor of beverage alcohol.

It was announced in April that Ray and Do Good Spirits had partnered with Dolphin Entertainment, Inc. (NASDAQ:DLPN), a leading entertainment marketing and content production company, to become the official creative marketing partner for Staple Gin. The team at Dolphin's subsidiary, The Door, continues to be involved in the brand's development, including execution of marketing initiatives, PR planning, trade relationships, strategic partnerships and awards campaigns on behalf of Staple Gin.

Guided by a sense of place and appreciation of a good cocktail, Ray conceived of Staple Gin as a botanical ode to New York State. A chance meeting with Do Good Spirits Co-Founder and fellow local, Brian Facquet, turned into a business plan after the two hit it off and bonded over their shared passion for the region's natural bounty. Ray brought two decades of experience as one of America's most well-known TV chefs, while Facquet contributed his technical mastery of distilling and deep connection to the community. They came to the realization that much like a delicious meal, a great gin requires a well-balanced and carefully considered recipe.

"I've written thousands of recipes throughout my career, and I wanted to apply the same principles I was using in the kitchen to create a balanced, beautiful gin," said Rachael Ray. "I'm immensely proud of the final product and excited to share it!"

What resulted after many meetings and brainstorming sessions accompanied by good food, friends and drinks, was a beautiful gin distilled with juniper, coriander, orris root, Castelvetrano olives (a nod to Rachael's love of Tuscany), dried bergamot peel, tarragon and extra virgin olive oil. It's well-suited for mixing into gin cocktails like the martini and French 75, but is just as apt sipped neat or on the rocks.

"The pleasure of working with Staple Gin is Rachael and Brian's focus on flavor," said Allen Katz, Director of Mixology and Spirits Education for Southern Glazer's Wine & Spirits of New York. "As bartenders, there is nothing more satisfying than the versatility and purposefulness of a well-made spirit that allows us to focus on both creativity and quality."

In October 2024, Rachael Ray will participate in the Food Network New York City Wine & Food Festival where Staple Gin will have a footprint at the three-day Grand Tasting, including Southern Glazer's Wine & Spirits' annual Trade Day as well as her signature Blue Moon Burger Bash.
