Tenu Gin 0.5L 47% From the Finnish wilderness “Tenu Gin”, which comes from the depths of Finland, is also known as the “spirit of the forest” because it comes from the northernmost forest area on earth. The taïga is characterized by its sparse vegetation; only conifers and berries grow there in the dense forests. Mosses and numerous types of lichen also have the prospect of thriving. The landscape is also characterized by mountain ranges and swampy areas that are simply breathtaking in winter. Temperatures can easily reach minus 40 degrees at this time of year. The term taïga is probably a loanword from Russian and means something like “impenetrable, often swampy forest”. The word can probably be traced back to the Mongolian version 'Tajga', which means "mountain forest". Blessed by the monks The gin was originally created by a small brotherhood of monks in order to be able to process the herbs collected from the Finnish forest. Even today, the "Tenu Gin" is distilled and bottled with great dedication in the Valamo Monastery Distillery by renowned master distillers with a lot of discipline and skill. Consecrated with secrets Pure spring water of the best quality, which is obtained directly on site, serves as the basis. But that is by no means all that the gin hides inside. There you will find hints of rare botanicals that can be clearly identified as wild herbs, roots, flowers, wild roses, cranberries and juniper. Arctic legonberries give the premium gin its unmistakable taste and characterize it with its highly complex characteristics. Influences from summer green shrubs that grow close to the ground and usually have blueberries on them are also easy to recognize. However, you will have to discover the complete secret of "Tenu Gin" for yourself. Shining in all its glory This gin is ideal for classic cocktails and long drinks such as Negronis, Gimlets or the Gin Martini thanks to its aromatic profile. As a tonic, however, it also reveals its strength at exactly the right point.

Michlers Orange Gin 0.7L 44% Bold steps With the Orange Gin, the British distillery is completing its trio of gins with another particularly flavoured taste experience. While cucumbers were added to the Green Gin to change the flavour, it is almost logical that oranges, or more precisely orange peel, were used in the Orange Gin. This gives the distillery a truly unique selling point with its gins that are deliberately dominated by one flavour. While all of the distillery's rums are otherwise made in England, the gins occupy a special place, because through the cooperation with the German master distiller Frank Braun, the gins are produced in Germany, just like he was back then. The origins of the distillery go back to the Austrian Albert Michler, who founded his liqueur and spirits factory in 1863 in the small town of Buchdorf in Silesia and quickly became very famous in the Austro-Hungarian Empire, especially for a herbal schnapps and his imported rum. Proven secrets For gin production, the Michler distillery had a special distillation process developed by master distiller Braun. From the unflavored raw spirit to the finished gin, the spirit goes through a total of seven distillation steps, all of which are responsible for the unique taste. But nothing more is known about this and it is a trade secret. Another secret are the gin's botanicals; a total of 15 different herbs, spices and fruits are used, although only a handful of them are known. Of these, juniper and cardamom are the most classic. The exoteric ones include wormwood, coriander, apple peel and a berry similar to the currant and of course the orange peel, which is rich in essential oils. Sun in the bottle The taste of the spirit immediately reminds you of a distant oriental market, with all its exotic products. The intense orange aroma harmonizes wonderfully with all the spices and creates a harmonious, round and warm overall picture. So tart, bitter but above all many fruity nuances play together and make this gin a taste experience with which you can bring summer, sun and warmth into your home.

Michler's Green Gin 0.7L 44%

Michlers Genuine Gin 0.7L 44% Classic style The Albert Michler distillery is mainly known for its expressive rums, but it is probably in every British distillery's blood to devote itself to the country's most famous spirit, gin. In the spirit of founder Albert Michler, the decision was made to distill a unique gin for people looking for new taste experiences. To develop it, the distillery joined forces with German master distiller Frank Braun, and production was also relocated to Germany, making it in the immediate vicinity of Michler's birthplace. In the 19th century, Michler lived and worked in Silesia, which at the time was partly part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire and is now Poland. Lots of juniper The distillation of this spirit is quite unique, as it is divided into seven steps and a total of three distillation units, which are responsible for the distinctive taste. For the maceration, the heart of gin production, up to 15 spices and herbs are used, which are largely secret. Nevertheless, some are well known, such as the classic juniper, but then it quickly becomes exotic, as the other ingredients include apple peel, wormwood, rosemary, thyme, citrus fruits and a fruit similar to the currant. All botanicals are placed in the clear raw spirit so that the alcohol bursts the cell walls of the plants and they release their essential oils and aromas. This is how the alcohol is flavored and the gin is created. As more juniper is added during production than in other gins, the distillate tends to be slightly cloudy because there are more essential oils in the spirit, but this has no effect on the taste. Many nuances A variety of different aromas can be detected on the tongue, the main component being juniper. However, it is surrounded by nuances of spices and flowers reminiscent of forest and nature, which are rounded off by fruity, exotic aromas. This results in an overall very soft and round taste.

Elg Gin No. 3. Navy Strength Miniature 0.05L 57.2% Strengthening the aromas Like Elg No. 2, the third gin from the Danish micro-distillery also has a historical background, but more on that later. Using the classic pot still method, master distiller Henrik Elsner produces a gin with the three botanicals juniper, coriander and carrot. To enhance the extraordinary taste of the carrot in combination with the other two typical gin ingredients, Elsner uses a higher alcohol content. This is achieved by using less water when adjusting the drinking strength, which means that the alcohol is more concentrated, the characteristic of a Navy Strength Gin. Trial by fire The name of the gin can be traced back to sailors in the 19th century who bought rum in the Caribbean but, due to a lack of measuring methods, were unable to determine how high the alcohol content of the distillates was. So they came up with the idea of pouring the alcohol over some gunpowder and then igniting this sample. If the rum caught fire, it was clear that it was a high-proof distillate and the rum was "100% proof", which later tests showed corresponded to 57.2% alcohol. This is why spirits with a higher alcohol content are now referred to as Navy Strength. The big brother If the sailors had carried out the experiment with this Elg Gin, they would have bought it too, because it has exactly 57.2% ABV. And they would certainly have liked the stronger version of the Elg No.1 too, it was not for nothing that Henrik Elsner gave his third creation this alcohol content, after all, alcohol is a flavor carrier and with a 10% increase compared to the Elg No. 1, this is clearly noticeable. When comparing the first and third gins, you will notice that it tastes even more authentic and pure. Because more alcohol also means more flavor-giving essential oils from the selected ingredients in the distillate. This makes the interplay of the three botanicals much more noticeable, the spicy sweetness of the carrot stands out in the midst of the fruity juniper and the spice of the coriander. The gin delivered here comes in a perfect miniature format and is ideal for the first impression.

Elg Gin No. 3 Navy Strength 0.5L 57.2% Strengthening the aromas Like Elg No. 2, the third gin from the Danish micro-distillery also has a historical background, but more on that later.

Elg Gin No.1 Miniature 0.05L 47.2% A gin like Danish design The name "Elg" is Danish for "elk" and, in addition to the name of the gin, this is also the nickname of the award-winning master distiller Henrik Elsner. He distills a truly remarkable gin on Zealand, the largest of the Danish islands. It consists of just three ingredients, which seems very simple and sober, especially these days when there are sometimes up to 50 different botanicals in a gin. The Elg gin stands out from the crowd precisely because it is reduced to a handful of ingredients. This shows true distilling skill in a different way: balancing three strong ingredients to create a tasty whole. Exceptional ingredients As is often the case with gin, the basis here at Stone Grange is a raw spirit made from wheat. Juniper berries and coriander are also more of a norm for a gin. But with the last ingredient, Elsner takes an unusual and unusual path: carrots. As inappropriate as this may sound at first, when you take a closer look at this vegetable and its biochemical composition, it seems all the more appropriate to test it in combination with a gin. The root vegetable has a high proportion of terpenes, these highly aromatic compounds are important components of essential oils. Carrots therefore contain exactly what is essential for a tasty gin - lots of aroma. This high proportion of essential oils is even visually recognizable in the glass when drinking, because if the gin is mixed with ice cubes or a filler, the clear distillate turns milky white. This so-called opal effect occurs particularly in spirits with a particularly high concentration of essential oils. Less is more Thanks to these three ingredients, the distillery has succeeded in producing a particularly pure gin with a precise taste. All ingredients are equally important for the overall impression, nothing covers up or distorts its partners. So the name fits the gin perfectly: Elks are loners in nature, just as this gin with its minimalist, unusual ingredients stands out on the market with this unique selling point. The gin delivered here comes in a perfect miniature format and is ideal for the first impression.

Elg Gin No. 2 Miniature 0.05L 46.3% Gin not for everyone The Stone Range Distillery is already used to taking unusual paths with its first gin, Gin No. 1. With its second gin, the small Danish distillery takes a journey back in time to the 18th century and follows in the footsteps of a true explorer. Tom Chamberlain may have distilled ordinary gin in Victorian England, but in his free time he was always tinkering with new recipes in his well-equipped laboratory. Only particularly important customers of Chamberlain were allowed to taste these creations and when word got around about the existence of these special drops, everyone wanted to try “Tom Gin”. The reason the gin was so different was because of an alcoholic extract of the juniper berry. In the laboratory Based on the Elg Gin No. To create Gin No. 1, which consists of juniper, cardamom and carrots, master distiller Henrik Elsner, like Chamberlain, experimented and carried out tests which resulted in a dark, sweet and strong gin. The special thing about it is the naturally homemade juniper extract which is added to Gin No. 1 and thus enhances its sensory qualities. A wide variety of mixing ratios of juniper berries and alcohol strengths were tested until the final recipe was determined. The extraction process used is called maceration, in which the juniper berries are soaked in 50% alcohol for a month. During this time the alcohol takes on the aroma and color of the berries. After straining this mixture, at the end of the process you are left with an extract with a slightly reduced alcohol content which can then be used to refine the gin. Special then and now The extract now has a variety of aromas from the juniper plant which could not have been achieved through distillation. Used in the right proportions, this expands the aroma spectrum to include a particularly intense, fruity-sweet juniper aroma. The distillate is also no longer clear but has a violet color. The alcohol content has also shifted to around 46% vol. Gin No. 2 is a pleasure to drink neat, and you can understand only too well why the gin from "Old Tom" was so well received back then. The gin supplied here comes in a perfect miniature format and is ideal for making a first impression.

Professor Cornelius Ableforth's Bathtub Gin, 0.7L 43.3% History and production of Professor Cornelius Ableforth's Bathtub Gin: The term Bathtub Gin has a historical meaning that is quite controversial. In the 18th century, the so-called "Gin Craze", or gin epidemic, dominated public life in the United Kingdom. The average per capita consumption of gin was a dangerous 10 liters per year, including children, the sick and the elderly. Triggered by an increase in beer tax, many citizens began to get drunk by making their own alcohol. In addition to pots, pans and tubs, bathtubs were also often used. These proved to be very practical, as they allowed large quantities of brandy to be mixed with all kinds of herbs and spices to mask the poor quality of the distillate. Gin consumption reached threatening levels and social life threatened to collapse. The Gin Act of 1751 finally introduced comprehensive measures which fortunately managed to contain the epidemic. Today, the term "bathtub" refers to the artisanal production of spirits. Quality is now the main focus. The illegal and sometimes inedible products from the 18th century cannot be compared with this. Professor Ableforth produces his award-winning Professor Cornelius Ableforth's Bathtub Gin himself and by hand in his small laboratory in the south of England. The highest quality gins are produced there in a specially constructed still. The "mad professor" is particularly proud of the cold compounding system he developed himself. There he extracts the aromas of his botanicals at low temperatures in a particularly gentle way and transfers them into the distillate. In addition to juniper berries and orange peel, these also include cinnamon, cloves, coriander and cardamom. The result is truly impressive. This is also what the judges thought when they named Professor Cornelius Ableforth's Bathtub Gin the best compound gin in the world at the 2014 World Gin Awards - a knighthood for Cornelius Ableforth. Tasting of Professor Cornelius Ableforth's Bathtub Gin: In the nosing, Professor Cornelius Ableforth's Bathtub Gin shows an impressive combination of strong juniper notes, fruity lemons and spicy herbs. All impressions are wonderfully integrated and extremely harmonious. The interplay of fruity sweetness and earthy-floral notes, which are created by cardamom and coriander, is particularly noteworthy here. This means that Professor Cornelius Ableforth's Bathtub Gin goes its own way. Juniper is still the dominant aroma, but in contrast to standard London Dry Gins, the complexity is significantly increased by the spices and citrus fruits. On the tongue, Professor Cornelius Ableforth's Bathtub Gin then delights with an unexpected power and intensity. The impressions known from the nosing are further strengthened and developed in the mouth. The finish is long and warming, the Christmas spiciness fades into the background over time and is replaced by a pleasant sweetness and fruitiness. Professor Cornelius Ableforth's Bathtub Gin is one of the few gins that also works very well neat. Nevertheless, it is outstanding in a gin & tonic.

These are corn, wheat, malt and rye. From this, the Mississippi River Distilling Company produces River Pilot Vodka, River Rose Gin, River Baron, Artisan Spirit, Cody Road Bourbon and Cody Road Rye. The production of River Rose Gin The River Rose Gin honors a time long gone. A time in which, for example, the great Gatsby lived and celebrated his legendary parties.

In addition to juniper, the pure distillate is flavored with lots of citrus. For example, orange, grapefruit and lemon find their way into the maceration tank. Other botanicals used are lavender, rose petals and locally grown cucumbers, which provide the unmistakable finish of the River Rose Gin. The copper still for the River Rose Gin is also called "Rose". It comes from Germany and was manufactured by the renowned company Kothe Destillationstechnik in Eislingen. Although the distillery has a rectification column, it also enables production using the traditional pot still method. This quality product "Made in Germany" is the basis for the great taste of River Rose Gin. The taste of River Rose Gin On the nose, River Rose Gin has a not too dominant juniper characteristic and the expected intense notes of citrus fruits. The citrus fruits can also be clearly perceived on the palate in River Rose Gin and are complemented by a gentle floral note.

City of London Square Mile London Dry Gin 0.7L 47.3% History and production of the City of London Square Mile London Dry Gin: In the 18th century, London was virtually dominated by gin. There was a distillery on almost every street and more than 10 million British gallons of the juniper spirit were produced annually. An enormous amount for the time. Gin was sometimes even produced in bathtubs, but the quality was usually inferior, which was reflected in the pungent smell and an unpleasant alcoholic sharpness. The herbs, spices and fruits from all parts of the world, readily available through the London port, came in handy, as they could elegantly disguise the bad taste. Unbridled consumption brought social and economic life to a virtual standstill, but mainly affected the lower classes of the population. The Gin Act of 1751 permanently restricted and regulated the production of juniper spirits, which resulted in a massive decline in distilleries. Until the opening of the City of London Distillery, there was not a single distillery in the heart of the English capital for over 200 years. The City of London is the economic and historical center of the city and is considered one of the largest financial centers in the world. Due to its size, the inner core is also called the Square Mile. The City of London Square Mile London Dry Gin was created based on this name, to highlight the special status of the small London craft distillery. The choice of botanicals can be described as classic. In addition to juniper berries, coriander seeds, iris roots, angelica, licorice and fresh orange and lemon peel are also used. The City of London Square Mile London Dry Gin is bottled with a strong 47.3% alcohol by volume, which ensures an intense, full-bodied taste. Taste of the City of London Square Mile London Dry Gin: The aroma of the City of London Square Mile London Dry Gin is initially dominated by juniper berries, as you would expect from authentic London Dry Gin.

Ripe juniper berries are present first, accompanied by harmonious notes of slightly tart grapefruit, sweet oranges and slightly sour lemons. The delicate herbal and spicy nuances add to the complexity and depth. The finish is long and warming, with hints of liquorice and ginger. Overall, the City of London Square Mile London Dry Gin has a powerful, intense character, which makes it particularly suitable for use in cocktails and mixed drinks.

Journeyman Bilberry Black Hearts Gin, 0.5L 45% History of Journeyman Bilberry Black Hearts Gin: The Journeyman Distillery, founded in 2011 by Bill Welter, is fully committed to the production of organic spirits. The principle of the Journeyman Distillery is therefore that all ingredients used must be organic and, if possible, regionally grown and that sustainability and environmental protection are taken into account during production. Although the Journeyman Distillery only opened four years ago, a visit to it gives the impression of an old distillery that has been in operation for many generations. This is largely due to the historic building in which it was built. It is the historic factory site of the EK Warren Featherbone Factory in Three Oaks, Michigan, where corsets were once made. The EK Warren Featherbone Factory revolutionized the manufacture of corsets by using quills instead of whalebone. These were much softer and therefore more comfortable to wear and also had the great advantage of being widely available and therefore cheaper. The factory at that time was extremely successful, which also explains why they equipped the factory floor with high-quality materials such as maple wood. The building has lost little of its charm to this day and gives the Journeyman Distillery a historic flair. Production of the Journeyman Bilberry Black Hearts Gin: One of the most extraordinary products from the Journeyman Distillers is undoubtedly the Bilberry Black Hearts Gin. The basis is a raw spirit made from 100% organically grown wheat, which is then flavored with nine herbs and spices, the so-called botanicals. After 24 hours of maceration, the distillate is finely distilled in a copper still from Germany. This is not a simple compound gin, as is often the case these days. Alongside juniper, the so-called "bilberry" is the main ingredient. The bilberry is a berry that is related to the blueberries known here. However, it is much smaller and very difficult to cultivate. Bilberries also taste similar to blueberries, but have a much more intense flavor. This is also evident in the Bilberry Black Hearts Gin, which tastes very pure and fruity. Taste of the Journeyman Bilberry Black Hearts Gin: The Journeyman Bilberry Black Hearts Gin has a truly beguiling aroma. An intense fruitiness of juniper berries and the eponymous bilberries flows relentlessly through the entire room. In the background there are fine herbal aromas, as well as lemon peel, wild berries and hints of liquorice. The taste of the Journeyman Bilberry Black Hearts Gin also shows its fruity side. Once again juniper and bilberries take center stage. There are also light citrus notes, coriander, ginger and liquorice. The mouthfeel is extremely soft, almost creamy and ensures a long-lasting, warming finish full of intense fruitiness and light herbal notes. With a strong 45% vol. The Journeyman Bilberry Black Hearts Gin is ideal for cocktails and long drinks. A successful gin that can also be enjoyed neat when slightly chilled.

Hammer London Dry Gin 1.0L 40% England's tradition visits Oslo Hammer London Dry Gin, which at first glance seems almost inconspicuous, was distilled near the Norwegian capital Oslo. The mineral-rich water from the Hadeland springs was used, whose rocky landscape is, according to research, around 300 million years old. A double pot still distillation and a special filter technology are the decisive factors in bringing the delicious aromas of the botanicals used into Hammer London Dry Gin. The finest spices and herbs are selected with great care to perfect the gin. The individual ingredients for the aromas are not added afterwards, but during distillation, thus creating the unmistakable character. The recipe for London Dry Gin comes from England and can be traced back to 1776. It later made its way to the Scandinavian country via a roundabout route and has enjoyed great popularity ever since. The play of aromas The first scent is a strong hint of ripe juniper berries, the classic ingredient in gin. The combination of different ingredients, which are either dried or provide a refreshing kick, is striking. The notes of fine herbs play around the nose in a skilful manner. On the palate, a real firework of intense fruit aromas is revealed, as orange and lemon are paired together here. The fine sweetness of the juniper berries and the spiciness of the herbs create an unforgettable drinking experience. On the finish, you can feel a pleasant warmth that lasts a long time. Meanwhile, nutty and rich tones blossom and delight the connoisseur. The secret home The Hammer London Dry Gin is not a gin that you drink neat or on ice, for example. Rather, it likes to present its unique strength and special character in a freshly made cocktail or long drink. Combined with the classic tonic and vermouth, it shows its diversity and expressiveness. As an absolute classic for mixed drinks, this gin should not be missing from any well-stocked home bar.

Generous Gin 0.7L 44% History and production of Generous Gin: New releases on the gin market do not have it easy. Due to the large number of competitors, you can only be successful if your own product has one or, better yet, several unique selling points. This is undeniably the case with Generous Gin. The exceptional botanicals, the elegant design and the origin make this gin something very special. Generous Gin comes from the French city of Cognac. This alone promises exclusivity. In addition to juniper berries, lemons and limes, pink berries, blood oranges, pepper and elderberries are used as botanicals. Another special feature is the different uses of the ingredients. Some are macerated directly in the alcohol, others are passed through by alcohol vapor during the distillation process. This means that the natural aroma is absorbed very well and integrated into the gin. In addition to the unique production process and the quality of the taste, the Generous Gin places great value on an elegant, stylish appearance. The white bottle has a noble, velvety surface, which is decorated with black patterns and feels extremely valuable in the hand. This underlines the Generous Gin's quality standards and makes it a real eye-catcher in every bar. This is exactly the design you would expect from a gin made in France. Tasting the Generous Gin: There can hardly be anything worse for the connoisseur than when the taste and quality of a product do not live up to what the marketing or the elaborate packaging promises. Even if the Generous Gin clearly focuses on its appearance, the aromatic and taste profile is convincing all around. The nose initially reveals fruity aromas.

Sibling Triple Distilled Gin, 0.7L 42% History and production of the Sibling Triple Distilled Gin: The Sibling Triple Distilled Gin is, as the name suggests, produced by four siblings. The young distillers grew up in the English city of Cheltenham, where their parents own their own microbrewery. The creation of hand-crafted alcoholic beverages was, so to speak, in their blood. The newly built distillery in the heart of Cheltenham is equipped with the highest quality distilling equipment currently available on the market. A particular highlight is the glass Carter Head still, which allows you to follow the entire distilling process up close. For the Sibling Triple Distilled Gin, the base distillate is produced in-house and no purchased neutral alcohol is used, as is usual with small craft distilleries. Double distilled in the beautiful Carter Head still and then carefully filtered, an absolutely pure vodka is created, which forms the basis for the Sibling Triple Distilled Gin. The complex aroma is ultimately provided by the sophisticated steam infusion process. The vodka is fed into the Carter Head still and heated. The heat causes the distillate to boil and steam rises. This penetrates the botanicals in the upper part of the still and absorbs their taste and aroma. After the subsequent condensation phase, the Sibling Triple Distilled Gin is collected and bottled in stylishly designed bottles. The botanicals used include juniper berries, orange and lemon peel, as well as vanilla and blueberries. These ingredients are unusual at first glance, but they create an extremely fresh and unique taste profile that elegantly sets itself apart from classic, juniper-based gins. Taste of the Sibling Triple Distilled Gin: On the nose, the Sibling Triple Distilled Gin is extremely fresh and fruity. Juniper berries, lemons, oranges and ripe blueberries are clearly perceptible and have a wonderfully harmonious effect. Sweet notes of vanilla and honey also provide a lot of complexity and elegance. The taste of the Sibling Triple Distilled Gin is mild and soft. The botanicals that are already evident in the aroma also remain dominant on the tongue. The blueberries in particular come into their own and are therefore long-lasting in the memory. Together with the fruity accents of the oranges, lemons and juniper berries, they form a harmonious unit. Hints of vanilla and caramel support this. The Sibling Triple Distilled Gin stands out from classic London Dry Gins with its fruity, sweet aroma. The use of blueberries also gives it a special status. It is precisely this twist that makes the Sibling Triple Distilled Gin so exciting and interesting and ultimately makes it an unreserved recommendation. The Sibling Triple Distilled Gin is also available in the practical miniature bottle here in the shop.

Sibling Triple Distilled Gin Miniature, 0.05L 42% History and production of the Sibling Triple Distilled Gin: The Sibling Triple Distilled Gin is produced by four siblings in the southern English town of Cheltenham. The age of the young distillers is particularly remarkable. When the Sibling Distillery first opened its doors in 2014, they were all younger than 23 years old. The four brothers and sisters, whose parents own a small microbrewery, are particularly proud of the unique still. It is the only crater head still in Europe made of glass and stainless steel. This was specially designed for the Sibling Distillery and enables permanent control of the distillation process. The basis for the Sibling Triple Distilled Gin is the specially produced, crystal-clear and absolutely pure vodka. The siblings have deliberately decided to distill the base distillate themselves rather than buying it externally in order to meet their own quality standards and to be able to monitor the entire production process. The complex steam infusion process is then used. The vodka is fed into the Carter Head still and heated evenly. The rising steam penetrates the botanicals in the still, which include juniper berries, orange and lemon peel, as well as blueberries and vanilla, and absorbs their taste and aroma. This creates a completely natural, fresh taste profile that is sure to delight.

In addition, sweet notes such as vanilla and caramel and the slight spiciness of ginger provide a lot of complexity.
