HOME GROWN
There’s a little magic in taking something ordinary and turning it into something unforgettable. It starts in Colorado soil – juniper berries, spruce tips, and a mix of humble botanicals that, on their own, might go unnoticed. But bring them together with intention, and suddenly they tell a bigger story. Rooted in Colorado’s natural essence, refined into a bold and expressive spirit.
Created with Method & Muse to celebrate MSU Denver’s 60th anniversary, HOME GROWN is a playful remix of place and people. You’ll find the familiar – juniper, citrus, lavender – and then the unexpected: Pueblo red chile, tamarind, hoja santa, annatto, and Mexican oregano. It’s a spirited nod to MSU Denver’s identity as a Hispanic-Serving Institution, where diverse influences don’t just coexist—they create something richer, brighter, and more unforgettable together.
Think of it as an allegory in a glass. Just like these ingredients, MSU Denver students arrive as they are – full of potential, shaped by their roots. Through education, community, and a little bit of pressure (the good kind), they’re distilled into something deeper, bolder, and uniquely their own.
The result? A gin that’s layered, lively, and just a little unexpected – much like the Roadrunners themselves. Here’s to 60 years of transformation, and to everything that’s still unfolding. Cheers to becoming something more.
