Nordisk Brænderi Gin

In North Jutland, where the wind off the North Sea sharpens the senses, Nordisk Brænderi hand-distills a piece of Denmark into the bottle. The gins are crafted for Danish cocktails, including a Christmas edition that brings mulled-wine spices into the mixing glass. This is local craft tradition rather than mass production, made with an eye for the Danish ingredients and flavors found right outside the door.

    Expert's description

    Nordic Spirits Lab NSL Gin is a Swedish gin with aquavit botanicals, distilled and bottled in Sweden at 41%.

  • Bottle of Nordisk Brænderi Danish Sloe Gin
    Item no.: 2222786539-1228Sloegin

    Distiller Anders Bilgram's childhood memories of picking berries, plants and herbs in nature with his family became the inspiration behind this sloe gin, named in honour of North Jutland's wild coastline.

    Expert's description

    Nordisk Brænderi Danish Sloe Gin is a Danish gin distilled by Nordisk Brænderi and bottled at 29.2%.

    The wild sloe berries are hand-picked at the Stensbæk estate near Vadum and combined with juniper, stinging nettle, rosehip and chamomile flowers, all inspired by North Jutland's nature.

    The gin is sweetened with cane sugar, giving it a gentle, round sweetness typical of the Sloe Gin category, balancing the natural tartness of the sloe berries.

    The lower 29.2% strength makes the gin especially suited as a digestif or enjoyed neat over ice after a meal.

    Tasting notes

    Nose

    The nose is berry-like and tart with a hint of rosehip.

    Palate

    The palate is sweet and berry-filled with clear sloe, backed by juniper and chamomile.

    Finish
