{"title":"Gin","description":"\u003ch2\u003eGin: Juniper as the base note, botanicals as the signature\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGin\u003c\/strong\u003e is a spirit made from neutral alcohol of agricultural origin that tastes of juniper berries and has an alcohol content of at least 37.5% vol. Juniper must be at the forefront; everything else—citrus peels, flowers, spices, herbs—is the distillery's signature. At Leni \u0026amp; Hans, you will find gin from Cologne, Berlin, Karlsruhe, the Volcanic Eifel, the Moselle region, and the Münsterland.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThree levels: Gin, Distilled Gin, and London Gin\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEU spirit regulations recognize three gin categories. With simple \u003cstrong\u003egin\u003c\/strong\u003e, the juniper flavor can also be added to the alcohol via flavorings. A \u003cstrong\u003edistilled gin\u003c\/strong\u003e is created by re-distilling high-proof alcohol with juniper and other natural botanicals; flavorings and color may be added afterward. The strictest category is \u003cstrong\u003eLondon Gin\u003c\/strong\u003e: its flavor must come exclusively from the distillation process, and it cannot be colored. If the label also says \"Dry,\" the gin is practically unsweetened. We explain what this means in detail in the subcategories.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBeyond the production method, the base defines the character. Windspiel from the Eifel region uses alcohol made from potatoes rather than grain for all their gins. The Sasse fine distillery in Münsterland works with hand-picked juniper from the County of Bentheim, while Dr. Jaglas in Berlin uses fresh juniper berries and ginseng root. A \u003cstrong\u003egin liqueur\u003c\/strong\u003e like the Pink Grapefruit from Hoos, on the other hand, is sweetened, has less alcohol than gin, and is therefore categorized under \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/kategorie-likoere\"\u003eliqueurs\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eOur gin producers\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur top seller is the \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/gin-de-cologne-mini\"\u003eGin de Cologne Mini\u003c\/a\u003e, a London Dry Gin from Cologne-Ehrenfeld with lemon, orange, and lime peels, lavender, and hibiscus flowers—limy and mild.

London Gin from Karlsruhe with 15 botanicals, strong juniper, and 44.4% vol.\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHoos London Gin\u003c\/strong\u003e is a classic gin from Karlsruhe, distilled by Heiko Hoos according to the London Gin method. The 500-ml bottle contains 44.4% vol and 15 botanicals, led by juniper and pine sprouts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLondon Gin by Hoos\u003c\/strong\u003e begins with a decision. In 2013, Heiko Hoos no longer wanted to choose between classic and modern when it came to gin, so he started distilling himself. The result is a gin that consciously adheres to the old school. The designation refers to a method of production, not a statement of origin. The aromas are derived from distillation with plant-based ingredients; after that, practically only water may be added. Such a gin is therefore never colored or subsequently flavored. The result is clear in the glass and clear in taste. Hoos distills slowly and bottles in small batches of 120 bottles. Those who like to know who is behind a bottle will find here a distiller with a name and address in Karlsruhe.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTaste\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHoos Gin smells like a forest. The producer describes it himself: \"A gin like a walk in the woods.\" The nose catches resinous pine buds and strong juniper, accompanied by floral lavender and fresh chamomile. The juniper is at the front, as is fitting for a classic gin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe palate reveals the entire list of herbs. Coriander and cardamom seeds provide warmth, while cubeb pepper and mace add a slightly peppery, dark layer. Marjoram and lemon balm give a green, spicy note. Lemon and orange peel as well as orange blossoms keep the whole thing bright. Angelica and sweet fennel round off the gin and provide structure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAt 44.4% vol, it is strong, but the aromas carry it well. Anyone looking for a soft, fruity-sweet gin will find it too tart. For those who like juniper, that is exactly the point.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eUsage\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis gin belongs in classic drinks. In a Gin and Tonic, a dry tonic water allows the juniper and forest notes to shine through. Plenty of ice belongs in the glass so that the drink stays cold and dilutes slowly. A sprig of rosemary or a strip of orange peel makes for a suitable garnish, both picking up on aromas from the list of herbs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIt also cuts a fine figure in a Martini. Gin and dry vermouth are stirred over ice and strained into a pre-chilled glass. Serve with an olive or a lemon twist. For a Negroni, combine equal parts gin, red vermouth, and a bitter liqueur. It is best to try it neat first at room temperature in a small glass, then with an ice cube.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eRegarding labeling: Sale only to persons 18 years and older. The manufacturer does not publish information on allergens; the label on the bottle is the authoritative source.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOur tip:\u003c\/strong\u003e Add a small sprig of fresh pine or rosemary to your Gin and Tonic.

Heiko Hoos distills his gin in Karlsruhe and handles marketing and distribution himself, without investors or support from the spirits industry. He designed the bottle himself. The bottle is intentionally simple and dark. Effort and love should go into the product, as he says himself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn 2020, the producer spoke of \"one-man distillate\" in four varieties, plus his own vermouth. The classic gin is the base from which the other varieties originate. According to his own statements, his philosophy also includes a fair price. Hoos calls this small batch, \"in the truest sense.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFor whom\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis gin is for everyone who wants to taste juniper in their glass and enjoys classic drinks.

A London Dry Gin derives its aroma solely from the botanicals that are distilled with the alcohol during the burn; no sweeteners or colorings are added afterward. The name only reveals the method: London Dry Gin can be distilled anywhere, including Cologne. Legally, a gin requires at least 37.5% vol and must taste of juniper. This one has 42% vol. The workday is over, the sun is still up, three ice cubes clink in the glass: the first sip of Gin and Tonic is lime-forward and light, and you are no longer in a hurry. This bottle is made for evenings like these.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTaste: lime-forward, zesty, mild and refreshing\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eLime-forward, zesty, mild, refreshing – this is how the producer describes the taste, and the botanicals explain why. Lemon, orange, and lime peels provide the freshness. Juniper provides the structure that makes a gin a gin. Lavender and hibiscus blossoms round it off with a floral note. In total, there are over 12 botanicals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe gin is intentionally made to be not bitter. This makes it the bottle for everyone who likes Gin and Tonic but turns their nose up at resinous, tart varieties, and for everyone who is just discovering gin for themselves. At 42% vol, it still has backbone: it remains present in a long drink instead of disappearing behind the tonic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBecause the gin is mild, it forgives small inaccuracies in mixing: a little more tonic, one ice cube fewer, and the glass remains balanced. This makes it a gin for everyday life that you don't need to weigh out. It is summery anyway, which is how the manufacturer describes it. Anyone looking for an edgy, juniper-heavy profile will find a friendlier alternative here.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eUse: Gin and Tonic with lime, plenty of ice and a cold glass\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe classic first: 4 cl gin, 16 cl tonic water, a wedge of lime, and three ice cubes. We mix in a 1:4 ratio in a large long drink glass or balloon glass. First the ice, then the gin, then the tonic slowly down the spoon – this keeps the carbonation in the glass. A lime slice works well as a garnish; a lemon or orange zest picks up on the citrus peel botanicals in the gin. With 4 cl per drink, a 500 ml bottle is enough for around twelve Gin and Tonics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA few variations for the long drink: A small sprig of lavender in the glass complements the lavender blossoms in the gin, two cucumber slices make the drink even fresher. If you find tonic too tart, top up with Bitter Lemon or Ginger Ale. For guests, a pitcher is worthwhile: prepare gin, ice, and citrus slices, adding the tonic only at the table to keep it carbonated.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBeyond the Gin and Tonic, the gin shows that it loves citrus. A Gimlet consists of 5 cl gin, 2 cl fresh lime juice, and 1.5 cl sugar syrup, shaken vigorously over ice and strained into a chilled glass. For a Tom Collins, shake 5 cl gin with 3 cl lemon juice and 1.5 cl sugar syrup and top up with soda water in a tall glass. Drink it neat and well-chilled in small sips. Gin is a spirit with 42% vol and is only for adults aged 18 and over.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOur tip:\u003c\/strong\u003e Chill the glass in advance with ice and water and squeeze the lime peel over the drink before putting it in – the oil from the peel brings out the citrus notes in the gin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eOrigin: Handcrafted in Cologne-Ehrenfeld, founded in 2017\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eGin de Cologne comes from Cologne Spirits GmbH in Cologne, Bonner Straße 205.

A small family has since grown around the London Dry Gin: the Rosé, refined with raspberries, blueberries, and strawberries and with 15 botanicals; the Orange-Gin with over 13 botanicals, introduced in 2020; and the non-alcoholic Zero de Cologne with the same botanicals. The 100 ml minis were explicitly developed by the brand as a Cologne souvenir as well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFor whom: Gin beginners, citrus fans, and everyone who likes Cologne in their glass\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe classic is perfect for anyone looking for a mild, fresh gin for everyday life. It is the bottle for a Gin and Tonic on the weekend and for guests who don't like every gin. It is also suitable for anyone who wants to give a gin from Cologne as a gift for a birthday, housewarming, or as a thank-you for an invitation, as it will be enjoyed by everyone at the table because it remains mild. Those who have moved away from Cologne can bring a piece of home onto their shelf with this bottle.

You already know what’s inside from the large bottle: a London Dry Gin whose aroma comes from botanicals distilled along with the alcohol. By law, a gin must have at least 37.5% vol and taste of juniper; this one has 42% vol. The Mini is very popular with us, and for good reason: it answers the question “Will I like this?” before you buy 500 ml. And it’s a souvenir that fits on any table.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTaste: the same mild gin, just in a smaller bottle\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer describes the taste as lime-forward, zesty, mild, and refreshing. This is achieved through more than 12 botanicals: lemon, orange, and lime peels for freshness, juniper as the backbone, and lavender and hibiscus blossoms for the floral side. The gin is intentionally not bitter, which you will notice at the first sip.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAnyone trying gin for the first time doesn’t have to struggle through a glass full of bitterness. Those familiar with many gins will find the Mini a benchmark for mild, citrus-forward varieties. With 42% vol, it has enough strength to stand out in a long drink while remaining accessible if you try it chilled and neat in a small glass.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Mini is not a diluted version: the botanicals, recipe, and alcohol content are identical to the 500 ml bottle.

The ratio is 1:4: 4 cl of gin to 16 cl of tonic water, plus ice and a slice of lime. This allows you to toast with another person and immediately compare whether you prefer the gin neat or as a long drink. We put the glass in the fridge beforehand; a cold glass keeps the ice longer. If you don’t want to pour by feel, use a measuring cup: with 4 cl per drink, you have 2 cl left over after two gin and tonics, which you can taste chilled and neat to see what the tonic does to the gin and what the gin shows on its own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIf you have more than one Mini at home, you can turn it into a small tasting: \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/gin-de-cologne-ros-mini\"\u003eRosé Mini\u003c\/a\u003e and \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/gin-de-cologne-orange-mini\"\u003eOrange Mini\u003c\/a\u003e are also available in 100 ml. Drink each variety neat at room temperature first, then as a gin and tonic, and note down which one you like better. For a fizz based on the classic, shake 4 cl of gin with 2 cl of lemon juice and 1 cl of sugar syrup over ice and top it off in the glass with soda water. A Gimlet also works twice: 5 cl of gin, 2 cl of fresh lime juice, and 1.5 cl of sugar syrup, shaken over ice and strained, yield exactly half the bottle per drink. The Mini is also suitable for a weekend away because it takes up hardly any space in your luggage.

It is also a gift for colleagues, neighbors, and guests for whom a whole bottle would be too much: as a Secret Santa gift, a thank-you for flowers while on vacation, or a small addition to a larger package. Because the bottle is so compact, it is easy to send by mail. And it is the perfect souvenir for anyone looking for a little something for home after a weekend between the cathedral and the banks of the Rhine.

It starts with the lime-zesty Gin de Cologne and adds raspberries, blueberries, and strawberries. By law, every gin needs at least 37.5% ABV and must taste of juniper; the Rosé has 42% ABV. It's Saturday afternoon, the terrace is in the sun, and there is a bowl of berries on the table. The Rosé Gin Tonic gets a few of them as a garnish, and suddenly the glass looks like summer. The manufacturer calls the gin itself \"a dream in rosé.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTaste: berry-fruity, mild, and summery\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer describes the Rosé as lime-zesty, mild, refreshing, and summery, complemented by a berry-fruity side. The foundation is the well-known Gin de Cologne with its citrus peels and juniper; the Rosé builds on this framework with raspberries, blueberries, and strawberries. Together with the botanicals of the classic, there are 15 in total. According to the manufacturer, these include lemon, orange, and lime peels, lavender and hibiscus flowers, and juniper, plus the three berries.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe fruit is kept subtle: it accompanies the citrus gin rather than taking over. Those who like gin and tonic with a berry note will find a profile here that remains light. With 42% ABV, the gin still has enough strength to stand its ground in a long drink.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe color is a delicate rosé. The note regarding this states: contains colorant.

The ratio is 1:4, and as with every gin and tonic, the rule applies: first the ice, then the gin, then the tonic slowly along the spoon. Raspberries and a few strawberry slices work well as a garnish; a handful of blueberries floats nicely in a wine glass. A 500 ml bottle will get you about twelve drinks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor guests, a Rosé Sparkler is worth it: pour 4 cl of Rosé into a champagne or wine glass with 10 cl of well-chilled dry sparkling wine and garnish with a raspberry. It is ready in a minute and makes more of an impression as an opening greeting at the door than a glass of water. Alternatively, mix Rosé and soda water 1:4 with a lemon slice for a lighter long drink. For a Rosé Lemonade, shake 4 cl of gin with 2 cl of lemon juice and 1 cl of sugar syrup, fill with soda, and place half a strawberry in the glass. For dessert, a splash over vanilla ice cream with berries works well: 2 cl is enough. The Rosé has 42% ABV; it is a beverage for adults aged 18 and over.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA stemmed wine glass is particularly well-suited for the Rosé because the scent of the berries gathers in the wide bowl. Use plenty of ice, because cold tonic enhances the freshness and tempers the sweetness of the fruit. Fresh berries last longer as a garnish than slices if you add them to the glass just before serving.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOur tip:\u003c\/strong\u003e Freeze a few berries in advance and use them instead of some of the ice cubes.

The brand thus remains true to its line of distilling mild and refreshing spirits, while simply setting a different accent. Those who want to know how the Rosé compares to the original should try both side by side.

As a gift, it stands out because it is pink and yet tastes like gin from Cologne. For Mother's Day, a birthday, or as a thank-you to the neighbor who watered the flowers, a pink bottle goes over well.

Gin is a juniper spirit, and \"dry\" implies a gin with little perceptible sweetness. At Windspiel, the potatoes grow on their own farm in the mineral-rich volcanic soils of the Eifel. These are used to create a base alcohol that the distillery itself describes as particularly mild. The botanicals are layered on top: classic juniper, lemon, coriander, and lavender, along with ginger, cinnamon, and several ingredients that Windspiel calls \"exotic.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIt is a gin for the first gin and tonic on a Friday evening, when the glass is pre-chilled and the scent of juniper rises as soon as you pour. \"London Dry\" refers to the classic production method: the aroma comes from the botanicals in the distillate, and the gin remains dry. In the case of Windspiel, the mildness of the potato alcohol adds another dimension.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eMild, citrusy, and floral, with spice in the background\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe gin starts with juniper and lemon, followed by lavender and coriander, with the spice working in the background.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWindspiel describes the gin as mild and elegant. Juniper berries, lavender, and coriander form the classic gin aroma with a fine mildness, while ginger root and lemon peel give it its fresh character. Cinnamon bark, pepper, and licorice are carefully balanced and combined with regional ingredients. The distillery speaks of a moment of enjoyment between local roots and a longing for far-off places. According to the team from the Eifel, they spent an entire year working on this balance before the gin was bottled.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAt 47% ABV, the gin is strong. The mildness of the potato alcohol carries it, yet it still requires moderation when pouring. You can taste the individual layers most clearly when enjoyed neat: first the citrus freshness, then the floral notes, and finally the spice. In a long drink, the juniper and lemon remain at the forefront, and the lavender provides a floral accompaniment. Those trying the gin for the first time should ideally enjoy it neat on ice first before mixing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eNeat, as a 1:3 Gin and Tonic, and in a Negroni\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe gin is suitable neat on ice and as a gin and tonic – the two methods Windspiel calls classic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor a gin and tonic, fill a large balloon glass halfway with ice cubes and add 4 cl of gin. Then slowly pour 12 cl of cold tonic water along the spoon. A lemon twist, squeezed over the glass, or a small sprig of lavender makes a suitable garnish. A single gentle stir is enough to preserve the carbonation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor drinking neat, 2 cl in a small glass at room temperature or over a large ice cube is sufficient. In a Negroni, the gin replaces the standard gin in equal parts: 3 cl each of gin, bitters, and red vermouth, stirred over ice with an orange twist. For a Gin Fizz, shake 4 cl of gin with 2 cl of lemon juice and 1 cl of sugar syrup with ice, strain into a glass, and top up with soda. Olives, nuts, goat cheese, and smoked fish pair well with the citrus note. A gin and tonic made with this gin is also a great companion to a salad with a citrus dressing or fried fish with lemon.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe gin is a spirit with 47% ABV and is only sold to adults aged 18 and over.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOur tip:\u003c\/strong\u003e Place the glass in the freezer for five minutes beforehand and use plenty of ice.

The gins are based on potato alcohol instead of grain; the potatoes grow on their own farm in the mineral-rich volcanic soils of the Eifel. After the autumn harvest, Windspiel uses a proprietary process to distill the base alcohol. The recipe comes from the distillery's master distiller. The gin is produced using the classic London Dry method and is triple-distilled.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDistillation takes place in Germany, and the distillery relies on solar power. For you, this means: the potatoes that make your gin come from the Eifel, from the distillery's own farm, and the distillation remains local. Windspiel itself calls the gin \"Handmade in Germany,\" referring to the entire journey from the potato to bottling in the Volcanic Eifel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFor everyone looking for a mild, clear gin\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis gin is for you if you are looking for a mild, citrus-floral gin for mixing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIt is the classic base of the Windspiel range, and the variations are built upon it: if you prefer something spicier, try the \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/windspiel-premium-dry-kampot-pfeffer-gin\"\u003eKampot Pepper Gin\u003c\/a\u003e with red pepper next.

The coffee distillate gives the gin its character, while the juniper and classic botanicals remain present.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eNutty and caramel, with notes of coffee and juniper\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Caxambu Coffee Gin tastes spicy, caramelly, and nutty, with an intense, smooth coffee note over the juniper.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWindspiel describes the result as an exciting and stimulating taste experience. According to the manufacturer, the coffee note is intense yet smooth, and it pairs surprisingly well with the juniper berries. This is due to the light, low-acidity \"Caxambu Mild\" roast: caramel-like and gentle, it harmonizes with the typical gin aromas. Added to this are the classic botanicals coriander, lemon, lavender, and cinnamon bark.

It’s Friday evening, the tonic is cold, and you use less of this gin than usual – three centiliters are enough; juniper and ginseng can be tasted even in a full glass.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eJuniper up front, earthy ginseng behind, dry to the finish\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe gin tastes of juniper first, fresh and resinous, then the ginseng root appears: earthy, tart, with the licorice note that Dr. Jaglas attributes to this root. The two are opposites – the bright berry, the dark root – and that is precisely what carries the gin. Behind them works what the manufactory calls its \"entourage\": gentian, centaury, bitter orange, ginger, cinchona bark, cardamom, galangal, cinnamon, clove, nutmeg, saffron, and lavender. For Dr. Jaglas, ginseng is the queen of bitter herbs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBecause it is completely devoid of sugar, the gin remains dry right through to the finish, and at 50% ABV, it is robust – the manufactory itself advises drinking it mindfully and in small quantities. Those who prefer the ginseng root as a 35% ABV bitter with subtle sweetness should reach for the \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/golfers-ginseng-elixier-500ml\"\u003eGolfer's Ginseng Elixir\u003c\/a\u003e, the base from which this gin originated.

It is a spirit with 50% ABV and is for ages 18 and up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn a gin and tonic, three centiliters per glass of tonic with plenty of ice and a lemon zest are sufficient – the root remains perceptible, and the tonic keeps the bitterness in check. And the gin has a firm place in the Dr. Jaglas Negroni: one part GIN-seng, one part \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/artischocken-elixier-500ml\"\u003eArtichoke Elixir\u003c\/a\u003e, one part red vermouth, stirred over ice, with an orange zest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOur tip:\u003c\/strong\u003e Stir the Negroni with a large ice cube in a tumbler and express the orange zest over the glass before dropping it in – the oil from the peel brings out the bitter orange from the gin and bitter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSpiritus Juniperi: the juniper recipe from the 1872 Pharmacopoeia\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDr. Jaglas is a Berlin manufactory located at Choriner Straße 40, emerging from a family of pharmacists that has used monastery recipes and herbal knowledge for their elixirs for decades. The gin is based on the juniper berry recipe for \u003cem\u003eSpiritus Juniperi\u003c\/em\u003e from the German Pharmacopoeia of 1872 – a juniper spirit as pharmacies used to prepare it back then, combined here with the herbal base of the ginseng elixir.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAccording to the manufactory, the origin, purity, and content of the herbs, such as essential oils, are precisely defined; the roots, barks, and blossoms are gently macerated in the pharmacy and are certified to German Pharmacopoeia quality standards. Here, the pharmacy stands for care and origin; the gin is a spirit for enjoyment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe gift for gin collectors who already have everything on their shelf\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe GIN-seng is the bottle for people who collect gin and are looking for one that tastes different.

Not a pure juniper spirit, not a citrus soda gin, not a tea-colored gin – a clear, dry gin where Japanese citrus fruits and tea accompany the juniper.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrganic Dry Gin by Kakuzo\u003c\/strong\u003e is the latest of the four Kakuzo products and the only one with organic certification. A gin is a juniper spirit: alcohol is distilled with juniper berries and other botanicals, and the juniper must set the tone for the flavor. \"Dry\" means that the gin remains dry after distillation – practically no sweetness is added. Kakuzo names seven botanicals: juniper, coriander, and lemongrass as a spicy backbone; satsuma mandarin, yuzu, and grapefruit for the citrus side; and the house tea blend of Sencha, Keemun, and Assam, which contributes floral notes here. The gin's motto is included in Japanese: \"A smile is worth a hundred words.\" Saturday evening, the tonic is cold, 5 cl of gin over plenty of ice, a grapefruit wedge – and with the first sip, first yuzu and mandarin, then the juniper that holds everything together.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eYuzu, satsuma mandarin, and grapefruit at the forefront, juniper and coriander as the backbone, tea as a floral trace\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe gin tastes of citrus first: satsuma mandarin, the small, sweet mandarin from Japan; plus yuzu with its aroma between grapefruit, mandarin, and lime; and the tart grapefruit itself. Behind that works what defines a dry gin – resinous juniper, spicy coriander, and fresh lemongrass. According to the manufacturer, the floral notes of the tea blend lie on top; Kakuzo calls the gin perfectly balanced. With 44% ABV, it has enough strength to stand up in tonic while remaining dry through to the finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe gin is organically certified and bears the EU organic logo with the origin label EU\/non-EU agriculture – the only one of the four Kakuzo spirits to do so. Those who prefer to experience the tea blend in its tart, dark form should reach for the \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/tea-infused-vodka\"\u003eTea Infused Vodka\u003c\/a\u003e: there, the tea steeps directly in the vodka, turning it reddish-brown; in the gin, it goes through the still as a botanical, leaving behind fragrance rather than color.

It is a spirit with 44% ABV; sale is permitted only to persons aged 18 and over.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Kakuzo Buck is the spicy version: 5 cl of gin and 1 cl of lemon juice in a long drink glass over ice, top with 15 cl of ginger beer, stir, and add a lemon twist. For the Kakuzo Gimlet, shake 6 cl of gin with 2 cl of lime cordial vigorously over ice and strain into a chilled martini glass. And the Yuzu Collins combines both Kakuzo gins: 3 cl Dry Gin, 3 cl \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/yuzu-gin-liqueur\"\u003eYuzu Gin Liqueur\u003c\/a\u003e, 2 cl lemon juice, and 1.5 cl simple syrup in a long drink glass over ice, top with 8 to 10 cl soda water, and a lemon twist.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eStore in a cool, dark place.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOur tip:\u003c\/strong\u003e For the Gin \u0026amp; Tonic, use a dry, restrained tonic and squeeze the grapefruit wedge over the glass before dropping it in – this leaves room for the yuzu and mandarin, and the tea in the background remains perceptible even in a full glass.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eConceived as German-Japanese, distilled in a traditional distillery – and the tea comes from the vodka\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eKakuzo is a Berlin brand from Paul and Marc, two friends who have known the city's bar scene since their school days and have traveled extensively throughout Asia. They started in 2017 with a recipe for a tea-infused vodka, developed in their own bathtub; the brand has existed since about 2018, and the gin was added later as the newest product. Kakuzo describes the idea for the gin as a fusion of German and Japanese culture: German distillation art for juniper and coriander, Japanese citrus fruits and tea for the character. It is distilled in a traditional distillery according to the pair's own recipe; the manufacturer does not disclose the name of the distillery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe tea blend is the link to the rest of the brand. Paul and Marc composed Sencha from Japan, Keemun from China, and Assam from India for their vodka; in the gin, the same blend goes into the distillation as a botanical. The brand name honors the Japanese scholar Okakura Kakuzō, who explained Japanese tea culture to the Western world in his 1906 work \"The Book of Tea.\" What Kakuzo takes from this is the idea of balance: Japanese cuisine plays with contrasts – cold and warm, mild and sharp – and seeks the center. With the gin, the contrasts are juniper and citrus, German distillation art and Japanese satsuma. The brand's claim is \"Formed by Time.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFor Gin \u0026amp; Tonic evenings with a penchant for citrus, for the home bar, and as an organic gin for gifting\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Organic Dry Gin is the bottle for anyone who prefers citrus over lavender in their Gin \u0026amp; Tonic.

Instead of 24 times milk chocolate, there are 24 times 40 milliliters: every evening a different bottle, a glass, ice, tonic – and a QR code that reveals the perfect cocktail. For us, this calendar is one of the most ordered Wajos products ever – even though it is only available for a few weeks a year. A calendar meant to be drunk by Christmas instead of kept – one glass per evening is enough.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFrom classic to fruity – 24 varieties, each only once\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBehind the doors lies the range of what Wajos produces in terms of gin. Classic juniper gins, robust specialties, fruity-fresh summer varieties – plus the tonic syrups used to make a Gin \u0026amp; Tonic from gin and soda. And a non-alcoholic gin novelty for the evening when you still have to drive. Each bottle contains 40 milliliters, which is exactly one Gin \u0026amp; Tonic or a small cocktail. The alcohol content of the alcoholic bottles ranges between 18 and 44 percent depending on the variety; the syrups and the non-alcoholic variant remain alcohol-free.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTo be honest: Which 24 varieties come in which order remains a secret until the door is opened – that is the point of an advent calendar, and those who prefer to put their own set together are better served with individual bottles. 40 milliliters is a tasting sip rather than a stock bottle. And a calendar with alcohol 24 times over is a gift for adults, no one else.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor those looking for a single favorite gin in a large size, the calendar is not suitable – in that case, the \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/christmas-gin\"\u003eChristmas Gin\u003c\/a\u003e with 42 percent in the 500 ml bottle is the right choice.

Pour the day's 40 milliliters into a large glass with plenty of ice, top up with tonic water, add a slice of lemon or orange, and it's ready. If a tonic syrup is behind the door, it goes into the glass with soda and a gin from your cupboard. The QR code behind each number leads to a cocktail tip that matches the bottle – turning the calendar into a course with 24 lessons, and the bar book can stay on the shelf.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIf you want to compare, drink it neat: two centiliters in a small glass, room temperature or with an ice cube, and note what is juniper, what is citrus, and what is fruit. After two weeks, you will know the difference between a classic gin and one that tastes like summer. On the weekend, two doors are enough for two glasses with guests; in a family setting, the calendar becomes an evening ritual once the children are in bed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe calendar is suitable for a tasting with friends: four bottles from different weeks side by side, everyone gets a sip, and at the end, a vote is taken. It is not suitable as a stock for your home bar – 40 milliliters are gone after one glass – and for those who have to drive in the evening: the non-alcoholic variant is one of 24. One glass per day is the dose the calendar dictates, and that is as it should be.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOur tip:\u003c\/strong\u003e Give the calendar as a gift along with a bottle of \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/botanical-tonic-sirup\"\u003eBotanical Tonic Syrup\u003c\/a\u003e – then the tonic is ready for all 24 evenings, and the first Gin \u0026amp; Tonic can start immediately.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eGin from the house that started with liqueur\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSpirits are the origin at Wajos, far more than a byproduct. Walter Josef Oster, whose initials form the name, came from a winemaking family in Ediger-Eller on the Moselle, with 15 generations of viticulture, and opened a liqueur manufactory next to the winery in the 1980s – the first Wajos product was liqueur. From the 2000s onwards, his son Peter Oster and Ulf Schwichtenberg turned it into the Wajos brand in Dohr near Cochem, opening the first store in Trier in 2008 and today with shops all over Germany.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe gins and syrups in the calendar come from this bar range: over 80 employees work in Dohr, the family business carries around 900 items, most of them produced there and tested in their own laboratory. A calendar with 24 proprietary varieties is only possible if a house has enough of them – and that is remarkable for a manufactory that aims to \"work on a controlled smaller scale.\" The calendar is a seasonal item: It arrives in autumn, and when it’s gone, it’s gone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe gift for gin curious, hobby bartenders, and people who already have everything\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Gin Calendar is the gift for adults who like gin and are still finding out which one.

A glass with plenty of ice, a tonic, a slice of orange – and the room suddenly smells of cinnamon and cardamom, as if someone had cookies in the oven. The bottle is often ordered from us – as a gift, a hostess gift, or for one's own cabinet.

On the tongue, it is dry and robust at 42 percent, and the juniper remains perceptible – it remains a gin, far removed from a liqueur. The sweet plum follows as a fruit note, soft and dark, and the chai spices linger on the finish. The sweetness remains well below liqueur levels: it is an impression of the spices rather than an ingredient.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTo be honest: Wajos keeps to itself which botanicals beyond plum, cardamom, cinnamon, vanilla and chai were in the pot, and in any case, a list of ingredients is missing from most gin.

Four centiliters of gin, a mild or classic tonic, plenty of ice, and an orange slice or cinnamon stick as a garnish. A sweet tonic with fruit makes it too soft – a dry tonic allows the cardamom and cinnamon to shine. For guests on an Advent evening, it is the drink that is ready in two minutes and looks more sophisticated. For those who avoid Gin Tonic, try it with ginger ale instead of tonic – sweeter, with ginger that complements the spices.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eNeat and chilled, the gin shows what it's made of: juniper, plum, spice, in that order. A small glass after dinner, as a digestif; one glass is enough. As a winter variation, it also works warm: two centiliters of gin in a glass of hot apple juice with a cinnamon stick, or a splash in tea with honey – a hot gin that adopts the concept of mulled wine while remaining a gin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn cocktails, it fits where a spice is otherwise needed: in a sour with lemon, sugar syrup, and egg white; in a Negroni, to which the spices add a winter note; or with cranberry juice and soda as a long, red drink.

Walter Josef Oster, a winemaker in Ediger-Eller from a family with 15 generations of viticulture, founded a liqueur manufactory alongside the winery in the 1980s – his initials form the brand name. His son Peter Oster and Ulf Schwichtenberg turned it into the Wajos brand in Dohr near Cochem on the Moselle starting in the 2000s, opening their first store in Trier in 2008; today, they have over 80 employees.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Christmas Gin is a special edition of the house for the winter: a gin with the spices otherwise found in mulled wine. Like most of the roughly 900 Wajos items, it is produced in Dohr and tested in their own laboratory before being bottled. That a winery makes gin is less far-fetched than it sounds – capturing and balancing aromas is what the Osters have been doing with wine for generations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe gin for gifting and for Advent evenings at home\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Christmas Gin is the bottle for someone who likes gin and already has three bottles in the cabinet. The fourth one is the one with cinnamon, and that is the one they are missing. As a hostess gift for an Advent dinner, as a sophisticated Secret Santa gift, or for your own cabinet: 500 milliliters are enough for about twelve Gin Tonics, enough for the whole of December. It should be stored in a dry, dark place and kept upright, outside the refrigerator.

At 44 percent, it is bold – one percentage point more than many gins, which you will notice as warmth when drunk neat and as a backbone in a tonic.

A Gin Basil Smash is a drink made from gin, fresh basil, lemon juice, and sugar syrup – you have to crush the leaves, strain them, and by the end, the kitchen looks like a pesto explosion. Here, the basil is already in the gin. This turns a five-step cocktail into a two-step process, and a gin and tonic into something that tastes like a herb garden. The difference from the original: the sugar and juice are left out – a gin that captures the essence of the drink in a bottle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eBasil up front, juniper in the background, dry and clear\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhen poured, the gin first smells of basil—green and peppery, like a leaf rubbed between your fingers. Then comes the juniper, resinous and dry, which makes it recognizably gin. On the palate, it is bold at 42 percent but smooth, finishing with a spicy note rather than a sweet one. Wajos keeps the other botanicals a secret – juniper and basil are the two you taste. The gin contains sulfites. It is not suitable for those expecting a classic, citrus-forward London Dry – the basil is clearly the focus.

Neat and chilled, it most clearly shows what it’s made of. As a sundowner in the garden or a digestif after a meal – one glass instead of the whole shelf.

These include peels of lemons, oranges, and limes, lavender and hibiscus blossoms, and juniper. The manufacturer describes it as lime-forward, zesty, mild, and refreshing. It is intentionally crafted not to be bitter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Rosé starts with the same gin and is refined with raspberries, blueberries, and strawberries, resulting in 15 botanicals. According to the manufacturer, it is mild, refreshing, summery, and berry-fruity. The Rosé bears the note \"contains coloring.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eUsage: two bottles, two Gin \u0026amp; Tonics, a gathering of guests\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWith 4 cl per drink, you get about twelve Gin \u0026amp; Tonics from each bottle. The Classic is served with 16 cl of tonic, a wedge of lime, and three ice cubes. For the Rosé, use 16 cl of Mediterranean tonic, a berry garnish, and three ice cubes. Both recipes follow a 1:4 ratio. When guests arrive, place both bottles on the table with ice, tonic, limes, and berries, and let everyone choose their variety.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor a duo in a glass, combine 2 cl of Classic and 2 cl of Rosé with 16 cl of tonic. Mix 10 cl of dry sparkling wine with 4 cl of Rosé to create a Sparkler, or 5 cl of Classic, 2 cl of lime juice, and 1.5 cl of sugar syrup for a Gimlet. For both gins, the following applies: must be 18 or older; therefore, the box is for adults only.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOur tip:\u003c\/strong\u003e Prepare two garnishes for your guests: lime slices for the Classic, and raspberries and strawberry slices for the Rosé.

Founded in 2017, the company traces back to Abbass Khatami, who previously worked with his advertising agency for beverage brands. The gin is handcrafted in Cologne-Ehrenfeld.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe presentation box with the Cologne motif holds both bottles together. When you open the box, you see the varieties side by side: clear on one side, pink on the other. In addition to Classic and Rosé, the brand also includes an Orange Gin with over 13 botanicals and the alcohol-free Zero de Cologne; these are not in this box but have their own product pages.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFor whom: couples, circles of friends, and people who give gin as a gift\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe double box is for couples who cannot agree on a gin. It is also suitable for circles of friends where some prefer citrus and others prefer berries. It is a perfect gift for a wedding, a milestone birthday, or a housewarming. Two large bottles provide enough stock for several evenings, and those who give one bottle away as a gift get two presents from a single order.

The berries are hand-picked and carefully selected – 45% vol, 700 ml. Citrus and grapefruit take center stage, while the juniper remains mild and restrained.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGrafschafter Heide Gin by Sasse\u003c\/strong\u003e belongs to a spirit whose name already points to its most important ingredient. Gin is a short form of genever, and the Dutch word refers to juniper. A gin is a distillate characterized by juniper; depending on the recipe, other plant ingredients known as botanicals are added. Under EU law, it must have at least 37.5% vol; at 45% vol, this gin is significantly higher. Each distillery decides for itself how prominent the juniper should be. Sasse relies on berries from a specific landscape, the juniper heaths of the County of Bentheim. According to the manufacturer, it is the first gin made from juniper berries from this region. The producer subtitiles it \"Nature meets Craft\".\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCitrus and grapefruit to the fore, juniper as a mild foundation\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Heide Gin opens with freshness: according to the distillery, citrus and grapefruit dominate the nose. On the palate, earthy and mineral notes are added, giving the gin depth and grounding. The juniper runs through underneath, subtle and mild rather than resinous. Sasse heads this tasting note with \"The essence of the County\". You can feel the 45% vol as warmth on the finish, which is kept in balance by the citrus freshness. Anyone expecting a strongly resinous, juniper-heavy gin will find a much more citrus-forward style here.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eNeat in a glass or as a base for cocktails\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe distillery suggests two ways to enjoy their Heide Gin: neat or in a cocktail. Neat is the best way to experience how citrus, earth, and minerality play together. Pour it into a small tumbler or nosing glass and let it sit for a moment before tasting. In a cocktail, it provides the grapefruit freshness that complements many citrus-based drinks. A gin also has its place in the Elder Fashion Royale, which Sasse recommends for its \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/holunderbluetenlikoer\"\u003eelderflower liqueur\u003c\/a\u003e. The gin has 45% vol; sales are restricted to persons aged 18 and over.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eStore the bottle upright, in a cool and dark place.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOur tip:\u003c\/strong\u003e For a gin and tonic, rub a grapefruit zest over the glass. It picks up exactly the note that the gin itself brings to the table.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eJuniper from the heath on the Dutch border, distilled in Schöppingen\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe County of Bentheim is located in the southwest of Lower Saxony, between Münsterland and the Dutch border. Its juniper heaths are open sandy landscapes where the juniper bush grows among heather. For the Heide Gin, the berries are hand-picked there and carefully selected. According to the manufacturer, the previous year's damp weather ensured berries of particularly high quality. It is distilled and bottled in Schöppingen, where the Sasse fine distillery is otherwise best known for its cask-aged Korn. The distillery describes the gin as a tribute to the region and its history. It is marketed under the Grafschafter brand, just like the herbal juniper spirit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFor gin drinkers with a taste for citrus and origin\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHeide Gin is for you if you prefer your gin fresh rather than resinous and want to know where the juniper comes from. Locals from the County and Münsterland will find a bottle with a connection to their home in it; as a gift, it carries its region in its name.

Imagine an evening with friends; on the table are three or four gins side by side, and everyone tries a sip. For a round like this, a large bottle is too much, but a small one is just right. What you get to know is a small-batch gin in the literal sense. Small batch means: small quantities per distillation run. At Hoos, it’s 120 bottles per batch, distilled slowly. Every batch is therefore created individually and in a manageable size. It is distilled according to the London Gin method, where all aromas from the distillation process originate from plants.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTaste\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe gin in the small bottle tastes like the forest and meadows. Strong juniper comes first, followed by resinous pine sprouts. Lavender and chamomile flowers provide a floral, slightly hay-like aspect. The producer summarizes this in one sentence: \"A gin like a walk in the forest.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eUnderneath that, the spices work their magic. Cubeb pepper brings a peppery sharpness, while nutmeg blossom and cardamom seeds provide a warm spice. Coriander, marjoram, and sweet fennel lie in the middle. Lemon balm, orange blossoms, and lemon and orange peel add freshness and keep the gin bright. Angelica binds the aromas together.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWith 44.4% ABV, the gin has strength; juniper and resin linger long on the finish. Anyone looking for a sweet fruit gin will find this too dry. This gin is dry and herb-focused; the fruit comes only from the citrus peels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eUsage\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe 200ml bottle is enough for several gin and tonics, about four depending on the recipe. For the classic long drink, use a dry tonic water, a large glass, and plenty of ice. A strip of orange peel or a sprig of rosemary goes well with the herbs in the gin. Lemon also works, which makes the drink seem a bit sharper.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor a small tasting, pour the gin neat first into a nosing or small wine glass. Smell it first, then take a small sip. Afterward, add a drop of water; this opens up the herbs. If you place it next to other gins, the forest note stands out particularly well. The bottle is also well-suited for a martini in a small group.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eRegarding labeling: Sale only to persons 18 years or older.

It is bottled at 44.4% ABV.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHoos is deliberately frugal with packaging. The bottles are simple and dark; according to the producer, effort and love should flow into the product rather than into marketing and design. The small bottle wears the same simple face as the large one. Heiko Hoos has been distilling his own gin since 2013—honest and with powerful juniper, as he calls it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFor whom\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe small bottle is for anyone who wants to get to know a gin before putting a large one on their shelf.
