Grote & Co. Spirits

Pharmacist and pharmacist Kuno Grote, inventor of the herbal liqueur Pijökel 55, used to experiment passionately in his laboratory with new, unknown flavors and spirit recipes.

His son Gabriel Grote and his partner Henning Birkenhake are continuing this family tradition. In 2010, they founded Grote & Co. Spirits Manufaktur in Berlin's Prenzlauer Berg district. In doing so, they not only produce the family recipe Pijökel 55. They are also always on the lookout for new exciting drinks and recipes. The latest developments are the fine hazelnut organic spirit and the fresh Spree Gin with its new recipe for summer: rhubarb melon.
