Juniper Bird Schiedam Dry Gin 0.7L 42% Juniper berries are the absolutely indispensable ingredients in gin and genever. It is well known that these fine spirits would not exist without the fragrant richness of the juniper trees. However, there is an unsung hero in this story - the juniper bird. Both the bird and the tree depend on each other for survival - by feeding on this tree, the juniper bird's digestion allows the juniper berries and the valuable seeds to germinate and form new trees. Thus, this Mediterranean gin is a tribute to the harmonious, natural connection between the juniper bird and the juniper tree.

The Bitter Truth Pink Gin 0.5L 40% The history of cocktail bitters The first two decades of the 20th century were considered the golden age of cocktail culture. Many of today's well-known classics were created at that time. Many of these old recipes call for a very special ingredient - cocktail bitters. These are alcoholic seasonings that usually have a very intense taste and give the drink a very special note just by adding a few drops (dashes). To the chagrin of many cocktail connoisseurs, a large proportion of the former bitters were forgotten during Prohibition and only a few standard bitters survived, such as the Angostura Bitter. The internationally known bartenders Stephan Berg and Alexander Hauck were also aware of this problem and founded the bitters manufacturer "The Bitter Truth" in 2005. The aim of the small company was to bring long-forgotten cocktail ingredients back to life and thus make it possible to recreate classic cocktails true to the original. The development of The Bitter Truth The Bitter Truth expanded its range to include products such as Celery Bitters, which was voted "Best Spirit of the Year" by Mixology in 2008. Over time, Berg & Hauck realized that there was a need for other forgotten spirits. Many once-famous liqueurs, such as violet liqueur or apricot liqueur, were not available for a long time or were only available in questionable quality. The company's portfolio was therefore expanded to include additional spirits and liqueurs in order to close this niche. One of these new products is Pink Gin. What is Pink Gin? And how does it taste? It is well known that British sailors used to use rum to preserve their drinking water and drank it as grog to treat scurvy. However, alcohol on board ships was not only used to prevent illness, but also to cure it. A well-known "medicine" to relieve seasickness was to give sailors gin mixed with bitters. The Bitter Truth takes up this tradition and developed a pink gin based on the traditional model. This has been adapted to modern tastes and impresses with its subtle aromas both neat, on ice and of course in cocktails and long drinks. The nose and palate reveal complex aromas of the best gin, which combine wonderfully with delicate nuances of herbs and spices. The soft mouthfeel of this pink gin can be particularly well perceived in the classic Martini Dry cocktail. Recommended!

Gordon's Alcohol-Free 0.0% 0.7L About Gordon's Our namesake, Alexander Gordon, began pursuing his passion in 1769 and built his first distillery in Southwark, London. He began by sourcing the finest ingredients and producing his first gin, which had a significantly more intense juniper aroma than usual. Gordon’s Alcohol-Free That it doesn't always have to be high-proof is now being proven not only by producers like Tanqueray Gin, but also by the maker of the well-known Gordon’s Gin, who are launching a 0.0% ABV version. The classic, juniper-forward taste of Gordon’s Gin is, however, never compromised. This way, classic cocktails can be offered in non-alcoholic versions in no time, without having to forgo the classic Gordon's taste.

Bombay Sapphire Premier Cru Murcian Lemon 0.7L 47% Bombay Sapphire Gin The well-known gin brand from England has existed for almost 140 years. The gin gets its name from Queen Victoria and the time when she incorporated India into her empire. Gin quickly gained fame in the English colonies, not least because gin could soften the bitter taste of the quinine-containing tonic, which was used at the time to prevent malaria. Premier Cru Murcian Lemon A new core product in the Bombay Sapphire Gin product portfolio is the 'Premier Cru Murcian Lemon' gin. It stands for the Spanish region of the same name, 'Murcia', which is known for its outstanding citrus fruits. In addition to fino lemons, this gin also contains mandarins and sweet navel oranges. Aroma and taste Bombay Sapphire Premier Cru Murcian Lemon reveals what it seems to promise from the nose. An intense aroma of lemon, mandarin and orange unfolds, accompanied in the background by a variety of botanicals. Here you can pick up aromas such as lavender, juniper or pepper. On the palate, a remarkable intensity of citrus fruits also unfolds at first. However, the spice aromas such as juniper, pepper or angelica root quickly prevail. The medium-long finish, on the other hand, is rather subtle and is rounded off by a fine almond aroma.

Boe Raspberry and Sweet Basil Gin 0.7L 41.5% Boe Gin The history of the Boe distillery goes back to the year 1650. At that time, the chemist and physiologist 'Franz de la Boe' (also known as 'Dr. Silvius') managed to extract essential oils from juniper berries, which he then mixed with high-proof alcohol. In those days, people were known to place a lot of emphasis on the healing effects of certain plants, and so it came about that Boe developed an effective remedy for kidney problems with his juniper spirit. His tonic quickly developed into a popular medicine, which is probably not least due to the mood-enhancing effect of the alcohol. Today, Boe Gin is only produced in small batches in order to be able to guarantee consistent quality at all times. The basic gin is refined with raspberries and sweet basil. The perfectly coordinated aromas ensure a refreshing, summery gin that is not only enjoyable on its own. It is also ideal for giving the classic 'Basil Smash' a new toughness. Recipe Raspberry & Basil Smash - For 2 glasses 1 organic lemon 8 sprigs of fresh basil 4 cl sugar syrup 12 cl Boe Raspberry & Sweet Basil Gin Raspberries Ice cubes Preparation: 1. Wash the lemons and basil thoroughly with water. Then rub dry, cut the lemon into eighths and put a few basil tips to one side for decoration. 2. Put four lemon eighths and four basil stalks each with 2 cl of sugar syrup in a cocktail shaker and crush vigorously with a pestle. Now top up with 6 cl of Boe Raspberry & Sweet Basil Gin and shake well. 3. Fill a glass with ice cubes and pour the mixture through a sieve into the glass. Before serving, garnish with the basil tips and raspberries that you put aside beforehand. Do the same for the second cocktail.

Boe Apple and Lime Gin 0.7L 41.5% Boe superior Gin The history of the well-known Boe Gin goes back to the 1650s, when the chemist and physiologist Franz de la Boe extracted essential oils from juniper berries, mixed them with high-proof alcohol and turned this into a popular medicine for kidney diseases. Since the beginning of professional distillation, Boe Gin has placed great emphasis on care and only produces in small batches. Botanicals such as ginger, angelica root, orris root and liquorice are responsible for the unique taste. Apple and Lime Gin The Boe Apple and Lime Gin is a summery, fresh and fruity gin. This combines tangy citrus and lime notes with the sweet and sour aroma of green apples. This is complemented by the great classic spice notes of the basic gin. The Apple and Lime Gin is also good neat or as a classic gin and tonic, but we have also discovered a slightly more unusual cocktail recipe for you: Scottish Breakfast Ingredients: 3cl Boe Apple and Lime Gin 2 cl Licore 43 5 cl pineapple juice 1 tsp lemon jam 1 cl fresh lemon juice Ice cubes Preparation: 1.

DSM No. 825 Apothekers London Dry Gin 0.35L 47% The history of DSM DSM is a young spirits company from Berlin, which was only founded in 2017. Behind the factory are the founders Tim Müller and Konrad Horn, who fulfilled a dream in 2017 after years of preparation and development.

Apothekers London Dry Gin Apothekers London Dry Gin is a top product from DMS. It contains up to three dozen different botanicals that are wonderfully coordinated with one another. The focus, however, is primarily on the juniper aroma. This is followed by notes of coriander and fresh citrus aromas. A certain spiciness comes from notes of coriander and pepper.

Red Door Highland Gin Winter Edition 0.7L 45% Benromach Distillery In addition to producing single malt whisky for over 120 years, the distillery has decided to pass on its expertise and passion for special spirits to consumers in the form of gin.

Winter Botanicals The seasonal edition 'Winter' captures the character of the winter time. Botanicals such as allspice, cinnamon, sultanas, blood orange and sea buckthorn were used in this gin to create the taste of the cold season. The result is a gin with fruity notes and warming spicy notes. The finish is silky and warming due to the spices.

Iron Balls Gin 0.7L 40% Iron Balls Gin is a very unusual gin from Thailand. Ashley Sutton, a native of Australia, is the founder of the gin brand. He grew up in a family of sailors and therefore describes himself as a kind of 'modern pirate' with a penchant for exclusive design. Sutton is actually known for a number of impressive bar designs in Asia, but in 2015 he was attracted by the idea of his own gin in Thailand. He chose Bangkok as the place where his gin was produced and wanted to capture the spirit of the Thai capital in it. The base alcohol was already made differently than with classic gins. The base alcohol of the gin is distilled from pineapples and coconuts, which were previously fermented. This means that the base alcohol already has fruity, sweet notes. Then there are the secret botanicals, which macerate in alcohol for a few hours before the second distillation takes place. The mixture is then reduced with drinking water to a pleasant drinking strength of 40% vol. and bottled, which is another special feature of Iron Balls Gin. The distinctive bottle is reminiscent of a cannonball with a detonator. On the bottom of the bottle, a skull is embossed into the glass, which also underlines the 'pirate fantasy', along with other skulls on the cork and the label.

Drumshanbo Gunpowder Irish Gin Sardinian Citrus 0,7L 43%
Content: 0.7 Liter (€49.71 / 1 Liter)*
Drumshanbo Gunpowder Irish Gin 1.0L 43% The Shed Distillery The name of this gin with its strong character alone arouses curiosity. Drumshanbo is a small, idyllic town in Ireland, and Gunpowder is not gunpowder, but a special Chinese green tea! The tea leaves are shaped into small balls, which is reminiscent of gunpowder, and is therefore derived from English. Pat Rigney built the distillery in the tranquil town of Drumshanbo with the desire to produce hand-crafted whisky and gin, far away from any mass production. Gunpowder Irish Gin 1.0L 43% Gunpowder Irish Gin has a crossover character, combining Irish and oriental botanicals. In addition to the well-known ones such as coriander seeds and juniper, there is also Chinese lime, Gunpowder Tea Kaffir Lime and grapefruit. The latter are in the infusion basket. This means that the gin absorbs these additional aromas on its way through the distillery. A real explosion of aromas awaits you on the palate. An abundance of spice, the bitterness of the tea and, above all, juniper are clearly present. The Gunpowder Tea also brings invigorating fresh notes, as it has an aroma of smoky peppermint. The Gunpowder Irish Gin finishes with a long and spicy aftertaste.
Tokyo Nights Japanese Gin 0.7L 43% Japanese Gin Not only is it already a special thing that there is a gin from Japan, but the approach to the base alcohol is also very different from gins from Great Britain or Germany. In the motherland of gin, England, a distillate made from grain is usually used, or in Germany, for example, from potatoes, but the Tokyo Nights Japanese Gin has a completely different base alcohol. For this, molasses is distilled from sugar cane, as is usually the case with rum. The Tokyo Nights Japanese Gin takes the taster into the nightlife of Tokyo, where you can experience something special around the clock. In addition to classic spices and herbs such as juniper, the gin itself contains some unknown local botanicals that are typical for Japan. These are macerated in the base alcohol to create an intense aroma. The taste of the Japanese gin is well balanced and, in addition to the classic juniper notes, impresses with spicy and herbal notes. Slightly fruity undertones are also noticeable, here they probably come from local citrus fruits such as yuzu or similar.

Xoriguer Gin Mahon Canet 0.7L 38% Xoriguer Gin from the island of Menorca The island of Menorca was occupied by the English military for a whole century and the soldiers brought their beloved gin with them, as you would expect. As this ran out sooner or later and supplies from home did not arrive as quickly as hoped, some talented Menorcans seized the opportunity and began producing their own gin. Distillers varied and the number of families still dedicated to producing gin also dwindled. What remained, however, were the recipes that were passed down from generation to generation. Today, there is only one family, the Xorigeur family, that produces the traditional gin. The island's gin is even protected by geographical origin, which means that it can only be called this way and with this name if it was actually produced on Menorca! The Xoriquer Gin Canet is aimed at vintage lovers. The design of the bottle alone, which is a clay vessel, makes their hearts beat faster. In terms of taste, the Gin Canet is a softer, finer and rather dry gin. The taste is clearly characterized by juniper, various herbs and a hint of wood.

What exactly is gin?
Gin is a flavored spirit based on neutral alcohol. Its characteristic profile comes from juniper berries and additional botanicals. To help you keep track when buying gin online and comparing different styles, the most important features are summarized below.
Quick overview of gin characteristics:
Alcohol content
In the European Union, gin must contain at least 37.5% alcohol by volume. Many well-known gins are bottled at around 40%, while stronger expressions can be significantly higher. A higher alcohol content can add more depth and aroma in cocktails.
Flavor and aromas
Juniper is always at the center. Depending on the recipe, it is accompanied by citrus notes, herbs, spices, or floral nuances. The spectrum ranges from crisp and dry to noticeably sweeter gin styles with a softer texture.
Botanicals
Botanicals are the plant-based ingredients that give gin its aroma. Typical botanicals include juniper, coriander, angelica root, cinnamon bark, pepper, lavender, citrus fruits, and orange peel. Many producers also use regional herbs or unusual ingredients, creating distinctive and unique gin styles.
Color
Most gins are clear. Barrel-aged expressions can take on golden or amber tones. Sloe gin and other blackthorn-based gins often show an intense red color and are among the popular sweeter gin varieties.
Origin
The origins of gin can be traced back to the Netherlands in the 17th century, where genever was used as a medicinal spirit. Genever was made with juniper berries, which are the fruit of the juniper plant. In the 18th century, “gin” made its way to England. It was inexpensive and widely produced due to its relatively simple manufacturing process, which led to its rapid spread. Over time, gin became a globally popular spirit. Today, gin is produced worldwide. In addition to the Netherlands, classic centers include Great Britain and Belgium, as well as many modern distilleries in Germany, Spain, Scandinavia, Japan, and numerous other countries.
Use
Gin is often enjoyed neat, over ice, or in long drinks and cocktails. Well-known examples include the Gin & Tonic, Martini, Negroni, Tom Collins, as well as drinks based on Old Tom and sloe gin. If you want to order gin online, you can also browse our matching recipes for inspiration.
How is gin made?
The production of gin begins with a neutral-tasting base spirit. This is usually made from grain, but it can also be derived from other agricultural raw materials. Juniper berries and additional botanicals are then introduced to create gin’s characteristic aroma.
Typical steps in gin production
-
Maceration
The botanicals are crushed and steeped in the alcohol. During this time, the aromas dissolve and are absorbed by the spirit. The aromatic base is then redistilled, filtered, and diluted with water to reach bottling strength. -
Digestion
Similar to maceration, but with gentle heating. The botanicals are steeped in alcohol and warmed at a moderate temperature. This allows essential oils to dissolve more quickly, making this method especially suitable for roots and woods. -
Vapor infusion or percolation
Alcohol vapor passes through an aroma basket filled with botanicals. The flavors are extracted in a particularly gentle way. The result is often very clean, fresh, and elegant gin profiles.
Many distilleries combine different methods to achieve a distinctive character. After distillation, the gin is diluted with water to reach the desired bottling strength. For aged gin, this is followed by maturation in wooden barrels. For sloe gin or other sweet styles, sloe berries and sugar are added, resulting in a noticeably sweeter gin profile.
What types of gin are there?
Anyone looking to buy gin is quickly faced with the question of which style is the right choice. The sheer variety of gin styles available today can make classification challenging. However, the following styles are generally considered classic.
London Dry Gin
A classic dry gin with a clear juniper and citrus profile. No sugar may be added, and all flavors must be introduced during distillation. Ideal for gin & tonic and many other cocktails.
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.
Tanqueray London Dry Gin This world-famous gin is made according to an old recipe by Charles Tanqueray from the finest grain, the best water and selected botanicals in a fourfold distillation process. Tanqueray Gin has been named the best gin in the world several times in its history at various competitions. The distinctive bottle shape of the Tanqueray probably goes back to old English fire hydrants or historical cocktail shakers. The gin impresses on the nose with its fine spiciness. On the palate it is very complex and tangy. The aftertaste is very delicate and long. This bottling contains the alcohol strength of 43.1%, which is highly valued by bartenders.

Modern Dry Gin and New Western Gin
In these styles, juniper takes more of a back seat. Other botanicals such as cucumber, rose petals, tea, or regional herbs are allowed to shine. This category is perfect for anyone looking to discover distinctive and contemporary gin styles.
987 Nueveochosiete London Dry Gin 0.7L 40% 987 Spirits Drinks All botanicals used for this gin come from the region around El Bierzo. The distillery keeps some of the 14 botanicals secret, but those that are known include vanilla pods, thyme, bitter chamomile and Mencía wine. These are macerated in a distillate that comes from one of the best distilleries in London. Herbs and fruits are distilled twice separately. This creates a perfectly balanced symphony of clear juniper notes, fresh herbs and fruits. On the palate it is soft and creamy, almost a little oily at the beginning. The aroma of fresh juniper is clearly evident here, along with the aromas of herbs and the aroma of Mencía wine.

Cubical Ultra Premium London Dry Gin 0.7L 45% A cube of gin The Birmingham Langley Distillery produces the base alcohol for Cubical Gin. It is distilled four times and made from the finest English grain. In addition to juniper, lily root powder, liquorice root and cassia tree, Buddha's hand was also used as flavoring botanicals, to name just a few of the extraordinary herbs. The combination of the base alcohol with the herbs and spices takes place in the famous wine cellar 'Bodega Williams & Humbert' in Spain, which is mainly known for its good sherry and wine. The gin is produced using a traditional British process in distillation equipment that is over a hundred years old. A special ingredient - Buddha's hand A main ingredient in all Cubical Gins is the citrus fruit Buddha's hand. The main growing areas are southern China and India. It is very aromatic, rich in essential oils and, in contrast to most other citrus fruits, less bitter. The fruit can be recognized by its unusual shape. It is divided into finger-like sections. Buddha's hand is often used as an offering in Buddhism. Tradition has it that Buddha himself preferred a closed citrus fruit because it more resembled a closed prayer hand. The design With a rather unusual and elegant design, the Cubical Gin stands out from the crowd with its bottle design and indicates the innovative spirit behind the three gins. The exterior immediately indicates the extravagant contents. The taste The nose is dominated by the fresh, fruity aromas of orange peel and Buddha's hand, then the spicy and earthy herbs and roots come through. As you might expect, the citrus notes come through more on the palate, but they are also subtly accompanied by juniper, liquorice and cassia. The alcohol is only slightly noticeable here, as the Ultra Premium Gin only has 45% ABV. This fruity gin is best served as the main ingredient in a good gin and tonic.

Both`s Old Tom Gin 0.7L 47% The history of Old Tom Gin Even though it is only known to a few connoisseurs today, Old Tom Gin was once considered one of the most important spirit categories in the world. Old Tom Gin, also known as Old Tom or just Tom Gin, was particularly popular in England in the 18th and 19th centuries. Old Tom Gin is a descendant of the original genever from the Netherlands and is drier than this, but slightly sweeter than the gin known today. At that time, wooden signs in the shape of cats were attached to pubs, which would serve a gin shot to customers by inserting a penny. Since these bars were called "Old Tom" by the locals, it can be assumed that the name Old Tom Gin comes from them. The mechanism of the Old Toms worked in such a way that the penny that was thrown in rolled to the bartender inside the pub, who then poured the gin into a small tube directly into the consumer's mouth using a funnel. An ingenious but also dangerous business idea, as many alcoholics were able to treat themselves to their drinks in secret. Aside from this questionable pouring method, Old Tom Gin also slowly established itself in the more prestigious bars in England and was finally mentioned for the first time in a cocktail book in 1891. This was the book "The Flowing Bowl: When and What to Drink", in which Old Tom Gin was listed as an ingredient in the Tom Collins cocktail that is still popular today. Over the years, things have unfortunately gone quiet around Old Tom Gin, and it has only been experiencing a small renaissance for around ten years now, due to the increasing interest in bar culture. The production of Both's Old Tom Gin Both's Old Tom Gin is produced and bottled by "The Both Distillery" (founded in 1886) for the spirits retailer Haromex. Both's Old Tom Gin is made according to a historical recipe. The basis is high-quality juniper berries which are macerated together with other botanicals in the best neutral alcohol and then gently distilled. Both's Old Tom Gin is then carefully sweetened and bottled in elegant bottles with a strong 47% ABV. The taste of Both's Old Tom Gin Both's Old Tom Gin has a clear color and a sweet, fruity smell. The taste of Both's Old Tom Gin is smooth, sweet, fruity and convinces with a pleasant juniper note and nuances of rose petals, mint, citrus and anise. Both's Old Tom Gin is best enjoyed neat or in historical cocktails such as Tom Collins, Ramos Fizz or Martinez.

The gin is a remake of the "Old Tom" style of gin, which was extremely popular in England in the 18th century.It is a slightly sweetened gin that is the basis of many classic cocktail recipes. Ransom Spirits developed its Old Tom Gin with the help of the famous cocktail historian David Wondrich, who also developed a Curaçao with Cognac Ferrand that was named "Spirit of the Year 2013".In the production of Ransom Old Tom Gin, a malty spice is used, which is also why the subtle malt notes on the nose are due to it. After distillation, various herbs and spices are added to the base for maceration and then distilled in small pot stills and the best fraction of the distillation is bottled. A great Old Tom Gin that is ideal for the Martinez cocktail.

Foxdenton Sloe Gin 0.7L 25% The English Radclyffe family has been producing fruit liqueurs for home use for many generations. When Nicholas Radclyffe took over the family business - Foxdenton Estate Company Ltd. - in 2001, he specialized in the production of gin and gin-based liqueurs.A special highlight in the portfolio is this sloe gin, which is made according to an old family recipe. Made with high-quality sloes, this sloe gin is stronger and at the same time less sweet than comparable products. This has the advantage that the natural sloe aroma is not overpowered by the sugar and the gin also retains its natural aroma. Whether neat on ice, as a long drink with tonic water or bitter lemon or as a "sloegasm" with champagne - this sloe gin is always a pleasure.

Ableforths Bathtub Sloe Gin 0.5L 33.8% Bathtub Gin If you translate 'Bathtub Gin' literally, this gin means 'bathtub gin' and is an allusion to the time of Prohibition in America. During this time, alcohol lovers tried everything possible to get their hands on a fine tipple. In the 1920s, many tried their hand at this field as amateurs. There were many poor quality variants, often consisting of a mixture of cheap wheat distillate and water, to which additional flavors had been added. If the bottles available at the time were too big to be filled under the sink, people would resort to the bathtub tap and often the alcohol was distilled in the bathtub at home. This is how the name 'Bathtub Gin' came about. The Bathtub Sloe Gin by Ableforth is a special edition of the Bathtub Gin. The gin is produced using the cold-compounded distilling process. It is a process that has almost been forgotten. It does not use heat and therefore achieves a much better aromatic fullness. The packaging of each bottle is special: Each bottle is wrapped by hand, tied and dipped in wax. Professor Cornelius Ableforth, who is behind this impressive gin, has selected a number of herbs and spices to combine with the sloes, including coriander, cinnamon, cloves and orange zest. The Bathtub Sloe Gin As soon as you open the bottle you are surprised by an incredibly fruity aroma. In combination with the spices used, the gin creates an association with freshly baked cake. The taste then surprises you with marzipan and juniper aromas. Berries, citrus fruit and vanilla meet oak and tannin to create a harmonious taste. Bathtub Sloe Gin impresses with a spicy and long finish. You should simply enjoy this sloe gin neat, best chilled in summer and warm in winter for a change.

Kimerud Navy Strength Gin 0.5L 57% Gin Navy Strength What does that actually mean? This name goes back to the Royal Navy in the 18th century, when it was prescribed that a certain amount of gin had to be on board every ship. At that time, gin was considered a cure-all for many illnesses and ailments. As demand grew, however, naval officers began to suspect that their suppliers were selling them botched gin. They began to subject the gin to a simple test: if you poured some gin over the gunpowder stored on the ship and it just started to smoke or didn't ignite at all, you knew that it was diluted gin. Only gin that ignited the gunpowder was 'real' gin and had at least 114 proof. This specification has prevailed to this day and is why it is called Navy Strength Gin. Kimerud Farm The history of the distillery begins in 1785 on the Kimerud farm, which is located west of Oslo in Lier. This location with its clean air and nutrient-rich soil offers perfect conditions for starting the distillery and growing herbs and berries. The Kimerud Navy Strength Gin is dedicated to Jørgen Kristian Has Nilsen, the grandfather of the master distiller at Kimerud. Only regional botanicals that also grow on the Kimerud Farm 1785 in northern Norway are used for Kimerud Gin. In addition to the epic aspect, these also have another important role. Because of the harsh, cold climate in Norway, plants grow much more slowly there than is the case in our latitudes. This gives the plants much more time to grow and develop their full aroma. One of these special 22 herbs/botanicals in Kimerud Gin is the 'Golden Rood'. It is a very old herb and was used a lot in the Viking Age (800-1050 AD).

Aged Gin
Gin that is matured in wooden barrels, allowing it to develop additional aromas such as vanilla, caramel, and toasted notes. An exciting alternative for fans of whisky or rum.
Nagu Oak Aged Gin 0.5L 47% Finnish Gin Nagu Gin is produced on the southwest coast of Finland. Here, on a small group of islands called Nagu, you will find the small artisan distillery that was founded in 1996. It lay dormant for several years before two childhood friends plucked up the courage to return to their home island and take over the distillery. The small distillery's first 'new' small batch gin left the distillery in 2019, and two new products followed in 2020, the 'Akvavi' and the 'Oak Aged Gin'. The aim is to give the gin a typically Nordic character, so in addition to juniper, rosemary, fennel and spruce shoots are macerated in alcohol for a good 24 hours. The Oak Aged Gin The 'base gin' was used as the basis for the Oak Aged Gin. This then matures for 100 days in New American Oak barrels. This also creates a fine, sweet vanilla aroma and the notes of the oak wood are also transferred to the gin. The color of the gin also changes as it matures in the barrel. Oak Aged Gin is no longer a clear distillate; the gin has a wonderful amber color.

Harahorn Cask Aged Gin 0.5L 41.7% Det Norske Brenneri The production facility of the Det Norske distillery is in Grimstad in southern Norway. After the Norwegian production monopoly was lifted in 2015, the distillery was the first private distillery in Norway. The distillery got off to a great start with its craft gin in 2015. For more than a year, the master distillers experimented with different berries and plants to get what they consider to be the perfect recipe for their craft gin. Since fruits, berries and herbs taste so particularly good in hardly any other place in the world due to the special climate in Norway, Harahorn Gin's contain four regional ingredients from land and sea: juniper from Røros, blueberries from Nordmarka on the outskirts of Oslo, rhubarb from Grimstad and seaweed from the city. Harahorn Hunters and miners have sworn they have seen it for many centuries. In North American folklore, this creature is called the Jackalope. In Norway, it is known as the Harahorn. The classic Harahorn Gin uses juniper berries as well as blueberries, rhubarb, bladderwrack, marjoram and angelica from the Norwegian wilderness. This edition of Harahorn Gin has also been aged for a year in Oloroso sherry casks. This creates a premium gin with smoothness and elegance, specially developed for classic drinks.

Zuidam Oude Genever 5 years, 0.5L 38% Classic spirits and liqueurs from the Netherlands The Dutch distillery Zuidam is one of the few spirits producers in the Netherlands that still produces its products in a very traditional and artisanal way. All products used by Zuidam are 100% natural and carefully selected. Another special feature of the distillery is that it is still family-run. All recipes for the products produced there are developed in collaboration by Fred van Zuidam and his son Patrick. They see their products as a kind of painting, which is painted with aromas instead of colors. Zuidam places just as much emphasis on the packaging as on the quality of the products. For this reason, all products will be bottled in a specially designed and attractive designer bottle. The history of Zuidam Destillers The Zuidam distillery was founded in 1975 by Fred van Zuidam. Zuidam's idea was to set up a small distillery that specialises in very exclusive products. He therefore built his distillery on just 300m² with a small copper pot still and a small production line. Zuidam's beginnings were rather slow and it took a good 10 years before its reputation as one of the best distilleries in the country was established. However, the final breakthrough only came after his wife Helene von Zuidam took over the design of the products. The distillery, which has now expanded to 3600m² and 4 pot stills, is now run by the two brothers Patrick and Gilbert, with their parents always keeping a watchful eye on the two. While Patrick looks after the distillery, Gilbert is responsible for sales and marketing. The taste of Zuidam Oude Genever 5 years For this special bottling, the best barrels in the distillery were selected after a storage period of at least 60 months. Before being stored in barrels, the genever was distilled three times in a pot still from the best wheat and barley malt, as well as corn. Various botanicals, such as juniper, liquorice root and aniseed, were then added to the distillate and macerated for some time. The end result of this complex production method is a very special genever, with a rich vanilla and toffee aroma and a silky mouthfeel. One of the best genevers on the market!

Genever: The Predecessor of Modern Gin
Genever is a traditional juniper spirit from the Netherlands and Belgium. Often referred to as Genever or Dutch gin, it is considered the ancestor of modern gin. The main difference from many contemporary gins lies in the base distillate.
Malty Character
Genever is often based on malt wine, a grain-based distillate. This gives it a grainier, rounder, and softer profile than many modern dry gins.
Aroma Profile
Juniper is present but less dominant. Grain notes, subtle herbs, and a light spiciness shape the flavor.
Styles
Among others, there is jonge Genever and oude Genever. These terms refer more to the recipe and style than to actual aging. Jonge Genever may contain a maximum of 15% malt wine, while Oude Genever must have at least 15% malt wine content.
How to Drink
Genever is traditionally enjoyed slightly chilled and neat. It also works well as a special base for cocktails and long drinks.
