Cross Keys Gin is produced at the Latvijas Balzams distillery in Riga using a small-batch distillation process drawing on the Baltic botanical tradition. The botanical bill centres on juniper berries alongside a selection of herbs native to or historically used in Latvian distilling: chamomile flowers, linden blossoms, rosemary, mint, black pepper, and cloves. This profile reflects the botanical complexity of the Riga Black Balsam heritage — floral, herbal, and gently spiced. The distilled gin is bottled at 41% ABV in a hand-made black clay bottle — a vessel chosen for both its aesthetic and its practical benefit of temperature retention and light exclusion.

Cross Keys Gin is produced in Riga, Latvia, by Latvijas Balzams — the distillery responsible for Riga Black Balsam, Latvia's iconic herbal bitter with roots stretching to 1752. The Cross Keys name references the two crossed keys that appear in the heraldry of Riga — an ancient symbol of civic hospitality and the city's merchant heritage. The gin is a small-batch, handcrafted spirit rooted in the Baltic botanical tradition that has shaped Latvia's distilling history for centuries. It is presented in a distinctive clay bottle designed to maintain the spirit's temperature and enhance its flavour profile.
