More information about KUNSTWERK
After years, the KUNSTWERK London Dry Gin was created from an initial idea to the perfect balance of high-quality ingredients such as juniper, rosemary, lemon, cardamom, lavender blossom and other secret botanicals.
This gin was stored for several months in a high-quality oak barrel made from Limousin oak from central France. The oak wood grows exclusively in the old, sustainably managed forests of the French Massif Central. The result of the maturation process is this KUNSTWERK - Barrel Aged Gin.
A work of art as the result of a long development process.
Each bottle is given a wooden mark around the neck, a piece of wood from a disused barrel lid with the number of the bottle punched into it. This is a great one-off, also made in the KunstWerkStatt.

In recent years, I collected the most diverse varieties of gin from all over the world, all of which had to be tasted. Unfortunately, not many gins could convince, so it was certain for me: "One day I will bring a convincingly good gin on the market". Over the next four years, I kept improving my recipe, designing the bottle and cap. The label was painted by my 2-year-old son in March 2020 - his first painting ever. It was the artwork we were missing. Thanks to our little artist, we not only had a powerful image, but also a brand name: Artwork...
