At the Elmendorf distillery in Hamburg-Winterhude, the family tradition of spirits production is carried on in the 9th generation by Kai and Judith Elmendorf. Craft and family history can be tastily told by distiller Kai during a distillery tour with tasting.
The "Gin School" experience at the Elmendorf distillery offers participants the opportunity to distil their own personalised gin according to their own recipe in a 4-hour workshop under expert guidance. The Schnapps Journey experience is an excursion into the world of spirits tasting, where the aromas and flavours of high-quality spirits are being discovered.
Then as now, the spirits are made by hand from purely organic ingredients. The exquisite organic grain matures in centuries-old oak barrels, which give Elmendorf Korn its uniquely characteristic flavour. The gin "URGROSSVATER" is distilled at the in-house distillery "Henriette". The recipe is based on a refined, centuries-old family recipe, which today contains over 12 high-quality organic botanicals. Other distillates such as the lime spirit and Hamburg caraway are also carefully handcrafted on site. Hamburg caraway is Hamburg's first and only organic caraway.
