HOW IT ALL BEGAN

The Story of Lakewood Five Gin


In the heart of East Dallas, where the tall pines of Lakewood meet the shores of White Rock Lake, a tradition was reborn. Lakewood Five Gin wasn't built in a boardroom; it was forged through the enduring bond of five friends who shared a simple, stubborn ambition: to create a spirit that lived up to the standards of their grandfathers.


The founders set out to capture the soul of Texas in every bottle, gathering locally sourced botanicals to balance bright citrus with savory spices. They refined the recipe until it reflected the character and grit of the neighborhood they call home.


Today, Lakewood Five stands as a tribute to camaraderie and craftsmanship. It is a premium, award-winning craft gin made by friends, for friends—honoring the heritage of the past while toasted in the present.

Our Craftsmanship

Lakewood Five Gin, a standout Texas gin, has carved out a unique space in the spirits world by balancing classic tradition with bold, contemporary mixology. It isn’t just a spirit; it’s a craft gin designed specifically for those who view cocktail making as a true art form.

Our Botanicals

While many craft gins overwhelm the palate with a single note, Lakewood Five Gin is defined by its symmetry. It maintains the essential juniper backbone required of a quality Texas gin but layers it with bright citrus and earthy undertones. This balance ensures it is smooth enough to be sipped neat while remaining robust enough to hold its own in complex drinks.

Tasting Experiences

The hallmark of a "best" gin is its ability to adapt, and that's where Lakewood Five Gin truly shines as a premier craft gin. It excels across the entire cocktail spectrum: 


The Classics: Lakewood Five Gin provides a clean, crisp finish to a standard Gin & Tonic or a dry Martini. 

Themed Mixology: This Texas gin's flavor profile was specifically developed to anchor creative, high-energy recipes—like the bold "Chuck Norris" or the refreshing "The JT"—without losing its character.
