Brooklyn Gin: Funding, Investors & Team (Aug 2026)

Since its founding in 2010 by industry veterans Emil Jattne and Joe Santos, Brooklyn Gin has been proudly handcrafted one batch at a time using artisan methods and the finest natural ingredients. It is the only gin made with fresh, hand-cut citrus peels and hand-crushed juniper berries. Brooklyn Gin was awarded the prestigious double gold medal at the 2015 New York World Wine & Spirits Competition. Joining accolades won: gold medal at the 2015 San Francisco World Spirits Competition, gold medal at the 2015 Craft Competition, 91 points and a rating of “Excellent, Highly Recommended” at the 2015 Ultimate Spirits Challenge; the double gold medal caps what has become a banner year for the award-winning “New American” style gin. “At Brooklyn Gin, we believe in doing things the right way, even if it might take a little more effort and time. We celebrate the art of small batch craft distilling, as well as those who still make things by hand. We love to make the gin you love to drink.” — Emil Jattne, Brooklyn Gin Co-Founder Brooklyn Gin is currently available in the US in 40 states and 25 countries.

About FundedIQ's Brooklyn Gin Funding Data

FundedIQ tracks announced funding rounds and refreshes this profile every week. Round dates, stages and amounts are normalised to a single format, converted to US dollars, and de-duplicated: two records of the same round announced days apart are merged, and two genuinely different rounds are kept apart on the amounts they disclose. Amounts shown are the disclosed figures only — a round announced without a number is listed and excluded from the total rather than estimated.

Employee counts are reported bands, not exact headcounts. Founder and executive names carry the job title on record. Anything we do not hold for Brooklyn Gin is left off this page rather than filled in.
