Kimerud Norway Craft Distilled Gin, 0.7l, 40%

Lier - a small region in Norway located west of Oslo. Numerous rare, wild plants and flowers grow and thrive here, which is why Lier is known as the green lung between Oslo and Drammen. Due to the fertile and nutrient-rich soil, numerous farms have settled in and around Lier, growing a wide variety of agricultural products. One of these farms is the Kimerud Farm, founded in 1785, which is still family-run to this day.

In 2007, the decision was finally made to build a distillery on the farm, as it was noticed that a large proportion of the raw materials needed to make spirits were grown or could easily be grown on site. This is how the idea for Kimerud Norway Craft Distilled Gin was born, which was to be a strong, very straightforward and distinctive gin. The gin is based on potatoes and 22 different herbs, spices and fruits - the so-called botanicals. In addition to classic botanicals such as juniper, coriander, orange and lemon peel, other ingredients used include ginger, angelica root, walnut and, perhaps the most exotic ingredient, roseroot. Roseroot (Rhodiola rosea) belongs to the Crassulaceae family and has been used as an alternative medicine for centuries. The extract made from its roots is said to improve memory, ability to absorb information and concentration. Roseroot is also said to have a potency-enhancing effect. Whatever the case, the roseroot definitely gives the Kimerud Norway Craft Distilled Gin a unique flavor.

The taste of the Kimerud Norway Craft Distilled Gin can best be described as the perfect balance of bitterness, sweetness and the taste of the botanicals used. A very straightforward gin, which has a certain power due to the alcohol strength of 40% vol. Ideal as a gin and tonic, Martini dry cocktail or neat on ice with an orange peel. Awarded several times, for example as one of the best gins at a large gin tasting by the renowned "The Belgian Gin Club"!

Hammer London Dry Gin 1,0L 40%
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.

Elg Gin No.1, 0,5L 47,2%
Elg Gin No.1 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 in today's world 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 skills 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 approach: carrots. As inappropriate as that may sound at first, if you take a closer look at this vegetable and its biochemical composition, it seems all the more fitting to try 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. 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.

Tenu Gin, 0,5L 47%
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.

Harahorn Gin 0,5L 46%
Harahorn Gin 0.5L 46% Newcomer from Norway Again and again you have to realize that small, artisanal businesses become something really big and that it's not just the big market leaders that get all the attention. This is also the case with this new release from the small Norwegian Det Norske Brenneri. A harmonious gin from Scandinavia that is very special just because of its origin, as the Nordic countries are not exactly known for juniper schnapps. The Harahorn Gin comes from a distillery called Puntervold/Agder Brenneri that was founded in 2005 and renamed Det Norske Brenneri in 2011. After the first single malt whiskey was created in 2012, the handcrafted Harahorn Gin followed in autumn 2015. As co-founder Odd Johan Nelvik says, it took them a year to find the perfect combination of juniper and blueberry. This harmony is what makes this gin such a distinctively Nordic gin. In addition to juniper and blueberries, lemon and orange peel, nectarine and rhubarb are also used. The use of rhubarb also has a long history: The distillery is located in Grimstad on the southeast coast of Norway. Rhubarb wine used to be made there. The producers thought it would be great to somehow hold on to this tradition, so they added rhubarb. The herbs and berries used in the gin all come from the Norwegian wilderness. The harsh climatic conditions give them a taste that is only found in a few places in the world. The distillery also works with botanist Rolv Hjelmstad from Urtekilden in Oppdal. When producing Harahorn Gin, only small batches of around 300 L are produced per distillation process in order to maintain absolute control over the excellent quality of this gin. The taste The main aromas are clearly evident on the nose: juniper and citrus. On the palate, Harahorn Gin is also characterized by fresh nuances of creeping juniper, fruit and spices. Light notes of blueberries can be tasted, which makes everything a little fresher and sweeter. A very refreshing, long-lasting finish!

Harahorn Gin Miniatur 0,05L 46%
Harahorn Gin Miniature 0.05L 46% History Harahorn Gin is named after a Norwegian mountain in Hemsedal, where the wonderful juniper berries are harvested, and after a Norwegian legendary figure that no one has seen to this day. Known in North America as a 'jackalope', and called 'Harahorn' in Norway, it refers to a horned hare. After a production monopoly for alcohol existed in the Nordic countries, which was lifted for Norway in 2005, the former Puntervold / Agder Brenneri (now Det Norske Brenneri) was able to operate its production and barrel storage facilities in Grimstad in the south of Norway. They mainly produced apple wine and the caraway schnapps that is popular in the Scandinavian countries. They were the first private distillery after 80 years of state monopoly. Harahorn Gin The long summer days and the dark, cold winter nights create the perfect climatic conditions for the berries and herbs used in Harahorn Gin. Alcohol from potatoes forms the basis here. In addition, only selected, regional botanicals are used, with which the producers have experimented for a long time. In addition to the juniper from Røros, these include blueberries from Nordmarka on the outskirts of Oslo and seaweed from the city. This gin is produced in relatively small equipment with a capacity of 300 liters and is therefore a very special gin with each distillation process. Harahorn Gin can now be found not only in delicatessens and specialty stores. It can also be found above the clouds. SAS Flights has added the Scandinavian gin to its range. The guests on board should be offered a unique experience and so the Harahorn Gin joins the diverse selection of artisanal drinks on board. Tasting Don't be fooled by the typically clear appearance of this gin: clear aroma of juniper and citrus fruits on the nose. A surprisingly deep taste. In addition to the unmistakable juniper berries, spicy notes round off the overall picture of the gin and convince in the finish with the lasting freshness of the citrus fruits.

Kimerud Hillside Aged Gin 0,7L 42%
Kimerud Hillside Aged Gin 0.7L 42% Kimerud Gin Kimerud products are characterized by the climatic and geographical peculiarities of the Norwegian landscape. Kimerud can be translated as 'hillside' and comes from a small, rural distillery in the hills near Lier. What once began as a hobby for Ståle Håvaldsen Johnsen has now developed into his own company. After he and his family bought the Kimerud farm and built a distillery there, everything took its course. The isolation and the clean, smog-free air are a major advantage for the production of Kimerud Gin, because a lot of value is placed on the ingredients here. At the Kimerud farm, almost all plant components are grown organically in order to ensure consistently good quality from seed to harvest to the finished product. In addition, the cold climate allows the herbs and berries to grow particularly slowly, so that they have to use up all their energy, thus contributing to the plants' very intense flavor. Master distiller Ståle Håvaldsen and his team use 22 different botanicals, only a few of which are known. Some of these are coriander, quince, rosemary, walnut, mint, ginger and citrus fruits. Plants are also used that were already considered food and medicinal remedies in the Viking Age. The potato alcohol base is distilled five times in an Arnold Holstein still and is then diluted with pure mountain water to the desired drinking strength. Tasting The first thing that catches the eye is the golden yellow color. The base is Kimerud Gin, which gets its unusual color from a six-month maturation phase in old sherry and French oak barrels that previously contained HÅVALDSEN Aquavit. This naturally also affects the taste of the gin, which reflects the aromas of the aquavit and the sweetness of the sherry. Storage in the sherry barrels also brings notes of vanilla. This gin is proof that Norwegian or, in general, Scandinavian distilleries should not be underestimated!

Kimerud Navy Strength Gin 0,5L 57%
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).

Oslo Gin 0,5L 45,8%
Oslo Gin 0.5L 45.8% The smallest Scandinavian city The wonderful Oslo is located in the middle of impressive fjords and forests and is the capital of Norway. With less than 700,000 inhabitants, it is one of the smallest metropolises in the world and yet is one of the most important cities in the country. Last but not least, Oslo is not only known for its green spaces but also for its museums and art history. The production of special spirits is also a priority here; Berlin and London are not the only ones known for their very own gins. Norway is known for Oslo Gin, with special attention being paid to Grimstadt, which is a good 3.5 hours' drive outside of Oslo. Here Oslo Gin is produced by the well-known brand Det Norske, which some of you may already know from Harahorn Gin. Det Norske – Oslo Gin You can tell where the gin comes from on the label. It features the city's historic map. This excellent gin from the renowned Norwegian distillery reflects the many facets of the Scandinavian country, but above all the city. The basis for Oslo Gin was also juniper berries. But now there is Oslo's special toughness: birch leaves, elderberry and angelica are just some of the botanicals used.
