Himbrimi Pure Icelandic Gin is a Old Tom Icelandic created by the artist Óskar Ericsson to have a gin that harmonized with the nature of the wild areas of Iceland and accompanied him during his days spent fishing in the rivers of the area. And in fact Himbrimi is not only suitable to be drunk straight, but it also represents an ode to rivers, with its typical scents and the name that refers to a local aquatic bird whose sound, similar to a howl or the scream of a ghost, has inspired many Nordic legends.
The peculiarities of Himbrimi Pure Icelandic Gin Gin are:Icelandic spring water, the purity of which allows the gin to be filtered after the infusion of botanicals and bottled without further distillation, so as to preserve the complexity of the organoleptic characteristics and give the gin a nice persistence; the use of hand-picked local and wild botanicals, such as juniper berries and the arctic thyme, Whose floral notes similar to lavender characterize gin; the honey as a sweetener that balances with the botanicals creating a pleasant bitter-sweet effect and that allows you to mirror the recipes of the Old Tom of the eighteenth century.
La Brunner Distillery was founded in 2017 in the town of Mosfellsbær. It produces handcrafted 50.000 bottles per year in small batches of 600 liters and each of them is hand numbered by Ericsson himself. The brand stands as ethical and socially involved and is committed to contributing to the protection of the natural environment, the conservation of the fine arts and gender equity. There are already numerous prizes and awards assigned to Himbrimi gins.
