Main highlights

The manufacturers were inspired by the Norwegian landscape when making their gin. Thanks to the long daylight hours, warm days and cold nights, Norway has the best conditions for growing herbs and berries. In fact, 18 of the 26 plants used grow near the distillery in Norway. The basic product of potatoes also comes from the region.
The bottle design is supposedly inspired by the Huldra, a female figure of Norwegian forest sages. It has an irresistible appearance and attracts men to the caves with its irresistible charm.
Quality is very important here. The Bareksten Botanical Gin is only distilled in small batches, creating a taste-intensive gin with raised fruity notes.
Only Norwegian and natural botanicals are used for the production of the gin. The base is the potato brandy, which has been flavoured with various botanicals.
Bareksten Botanical Gin won the double gold medal at the Francisco World Spirit Competition in 2017 and 2020.

Winner of the Craft Spirit Award in Gold: Riot Gin was awarded the Golden Craft Spirit Award in March 2020, March 2021 and March 2024 at Craft Spirits Berlin, Europe's most important trade fair for artisanal spirits. For lovers of artisanal spirits, the gin presents itself as a true taste experience, full of powerful aromas and balanced complexity.
Small batches, great quality: in a small copper burning bladder, the Riot Gin goes through a careful production process, from distillation to loving labeling. Production is aimed at small batches of only 300 bottles to create the highest precision and perfection.
SPECIAL GIFT: Riot Gin London Dry Gin is a great gift idea for various occasions such as birthdays, parties and social evenings. The elegance of the gin is emphasised by the transparent bottle design. The high-quality closure protects the exclusive alcohol and is leak-proof. The dominant label attracts discerning connoisseurs and exudes an enticing blend of elegance and luxury.
Commitment to Social Justice: Riot Gin stands for the uprising against the establishment and societal inequality. Therefore, we donate 20% of our annual profits to projects that are committed to freedom, equality and against racism.
7 Balanced Botanicals: Juniper berries add a signature pine or citrus aroma, while lemon and grapefruit peels provide freshness and brightness. Coriander seeds add a spicy, citrusy note for complexity and depth. Grains of paradise bring a spicy, slightly peppery taste, kumquats a fruity and refreshing note, while the licorice root provides a sweet, warm nuance and harmoniously balances the different aromas.
100% gin enjoyment – fresh and splash: Riot Gin is a classic London dry gin with a clearly superficial juniper note as the centrepiece, accompanied by 7 selected botanicals for an intense, full-bodied taste experience. Thanks to natural ingredients, a high alcohol content and the avoidance of unnecessary filtration, Riot Gin creates the "Louche effect" - when diluted. Refreshment or cooling or cooling the gin practices easily, as essential oils no longer remain completely dissolved.
