01 / WHO WE ARE
With Intent.
A note from the founder —
We are a craft spirits brand from Chicago. Built by women, made by women, led by women.
We make the spirits we want to drink — the ones that taste like the city we're from, made the way we'd make them if no one were watching. No shortcuts. No softening for the room.
There's more coming. Stay close.
— Abby Titcomb
02 / WHAT WE MAKE
The First Pour.
HOH × J.P. GRAZIANO
GIARDINIERA
FLAVORED GIN
750 ML · 92 PROOF · 46% ALC/VOL
House of Hyena teams up with J.P. Graziano Grocery Co., the West Loop Italian sub shop slinging sandwiches since 1937, for a spirit that bottles the soul of Chicago. Giardiniera Flavored Gin is made with real giardiniera, infused into a bold 92-proof gin that's briny, peppery, and herbaceous, with juniper giving way to pickled heat.
Sip it neat, build a Bloody Mary with backbone, or shake a dirty martini that bites back. Taste real Chicago, 750 ml at a time.
SIGNATURE COCKTAIL
HoH Giardtini
A Chicago twist on the dirty martini, built around the briny, peppery kick of House of Hyena x J.P. Graziano Giardiniera Gin.
INGREDIENTS
- 2.5 oz House of Hyena Giardiniera Gin
- 0.5 oz dry vermouth
- 0.5 oz giardiniera brine (straight from the J.P. Graziano jar)
- 1 dash celery bitters (optional, for extra snap)
- Garnish: skewered giardiniera pickled vegetables — cauliflower, carrot, sport pepper, olive
METHOD
Add gin, vermouth, and giardiniera brine to a mixing glass filled with ice. Stir for 20 to 30 seconds until well chilled and properly diluted. Strain into a chilled coupe or martini glass. Garnish with a skewer of giardiniera vegetables resting across the rim.
NOTES
For a spicier pour, add an extra splash of brine or muddle a single sport pepper before stirring. Best served cold enough to fog the glass, with a side of crusty bread and a Graziano sub.
