The power and meaning of the color black are more contradictory than almost any other color.

On the other hand, this dominant color is considered mysterious, seductive and elegant in a positive sense.
So it is no wonder that a feeling of curiosity, but also fear, can arise before tasting dark gin. Because at the end of the day, "Who's afraid of black... GIN!!!"
After distilling the dark gin and diluting it to drinking strength, liquorice chips are added for a few days to enrich the aroma spectrum with delicate notes of licorice.

"Nature makes nothing in vain" - true to this dogma of Aristotle, I, Marco Hage, first devoted myself to high-proof pleasures in 2001, when I harvested, cleaned, mashed and fermented the fruits of the full fruit trees on the estate of Villa Waldhof in Upper Swabia. After proper maturation and distillation, the result was a mirabelle plum brandy that quickly convinced me as a layman and the first connoisseurs in my circle of acquaintances, and which laid the foundation for my passion for high-quality alcoholic beverages. The pursuit of the highest possible natural quality, the hunger for novelty and my experimental enthusiasm have created a wealth of experience over the years, which today comes into its own in the production of noble distillates. In 2008 I settled in Schwäbisch Hall and immediately found my adopted home here. Away from my professional activities, I continued the...
