<p>A Nordic Gin with a fruity twist.</p><p><em>Det Norske Brenneri</em>, or <em>“The Norwegian Distillery”</em> in English, is based in the lovely town of <em>Grimstad </em>in the southern part of the country (it’s where <em>Roald Dahl’s grandparents</em> lived). They’re the first private distillery in Norway ever since the government dissolved the state monopoly on Spirits-making in <em>2005</em>, and they’ve been making everything from apple Brandies and Whiskeys to Aquavits and Gins. They swear on traditional methods and small batches — they only produce 300 liters at a time. Naturally, DNB only uses local Norwegian berries and herbs, which have a very unique and specific taste thanks to the environment and the climate.</p><p>Now about the cool name and that horned hare. Harahorn Gin is named after a mountain in Hemsedal, one of the most pristine mountain areas. The chimeric beast on the label is the <em>lepus cornutus</em>, a huge rabbit with deer antlers, thought to be real in the 16th and 17th centuries.</p><p><em>Harahorn Pink Gin</em> is based on their original Gin that’s based on the <em>Norwegian potato Liquor</em> and contains <em>Røros juniper</em>, anise, Nordmarka blueberries, <em>Grimstad rhubarb, Oppdal angelica</em>, seaweed, wild <em>Sunndal marjoram</em>, and <em>16 other Norse herbs</em>. Then, fresh raspberry and lemon juice are added for a juicy and fruity twist. There’s no added sugar and this pink hued Gin pairs amazingly well with tonic, especially if you garsnih with raspberries or lemon to <em>bring out those fruity flavors</em> even more.</p>
