THE GIN

'Old Tom' Gin by Hernö  is made with carefully selected natural organic ingredients. It is London Dry Gin with the addition of Meadow and after the dilution of 43% of a touch of sugar. The addition of sugar enriches the floral notes, releases those of juniper and makes the gin even smoother.

THE DISTILLERY

In 1999 Jon Hillgren, along with some friends, left for London to work as a barman. Here he discovered gin, which attracted his interest to such an extent that it pushed him to delve into methods and techniques of distillation, which Hillgren learned, even following academic studies. This is how the "Hernö Gin Distillery" was born in 2011, located in the city of Härnösand, in Sweden. Inside a traditional Swedish house, painted in white and red and with wooden floor, "Kierstin", the hand-made copper alembic, has been placed, affectionately renamed with this nickname. Using certified and exclusively organic products, the Hernö distillery, the only gin distillery in Sweden, makes its distillates according to the "one-shot" method, certainly complex and expensive, but which guarantees the final product a much higher quality.
