Handmade premium spirits from the Rhineland

- Feeling of home: We live in Hangelar, a district of Sankt Augustin. In the immediate vicinity of Cologne and Bonn, carrots (= Murre) used to be grown here
- Regionality: Our partners come from the greater Cologne/Bonn area
- Small batch: We have been producing our gin in small batches since 2018, the first whiskey in our casks since 2021 and our new make “Spirit of Sankt Augustin” has been on the market since 2023
- Handmade: Or handcrafted - each bottle goes through our hands several times
- Manufactory: Distillation takes place in Frank Ginsberg's village distillery in Windeck
- Know-how: Ralph and Bärbel have many years of experience in the spirits business. Pot Still Tastings & Events has been a reliable partner for whiskey, gin and rum tastings for many years.
- Only 7 ingredients: In addition to juniper and carrot, our gin contains e.g. B. still orange zest, peppermint and cinnamon
- Barrel Aged: The barrel-aged variant is matured in wine barrels at the Peter Kriechel winery in Walporzheim an der Ahr. The special edition "Flut Gin" matured for 24 months in oak barrels previously filled with Pinot Noir, which had been delayed due to the consequences of the Ahr flood on July 14th, 2021.
- Awarded: One of the best German gins, including Best German Classic 2020 and Best German Matured 2021

This is how our gin tastes:

- Murre Gin: Juniper and mint on the nose, fresh orange and peppermint notes on the palate, sweetness and subtle spiciness. The finish is long, keeping the freshness and sweetness. Mild and balanced.
- Five and five: The jury of the World Gin Awards: "Very light and floral on the nose, a burst of mint on the palette, leading to along finish with mint."
- Barrel Aged/ Wingrut: Jury World Gin Awards: “Mint and eucalyptus top notes on the nose, with citrus, juniper, hints of herbs and spices, and a whiff of wood. The peppery, earthy spice notes dominate on the palate with intense eucalyptus and/or mint, leading to a peppery finish. Well balanced with good character."
- Tasting Notes IWSC: “Bold nose of lemon and lime zest; Palate offers soft vanilla before finishing with grapefruit.”

All our gins are ideal for classics as an aperitif or sundowner such as gin & tonic, Negroni, gin fizz or Long Island Ice Tea, but of course they also taste great on their own. After all, we produce a spirit that should also work on its own. should.
