This Bensberg Dry Gin pays homage to Elector Johann Wilhelm II, popularly known as "Jan Wellem", who had the Bensberg Castle built as a hunting lodge at the beginning of the 18th century. His second wife Anna Maria Luisa de ’Medici, daughter of the Grand Duke of Tuscany, raved about the view of the old Bensberg Castle over the hilly surroundings, which reminded her of Tuscany. Likewise Goethe and his companion Johann Georg Jacobi, who wrote in his diary: “Castle and village are on a high mountain from which you can see many miles of forests, fields and heaths, in the distance a stretch of the Rhine and the famous Seven Mountains . [...] I believe that the gods now and then drink their nectar on a silver cloud and overlook half of the earth! " A lot of Bensberg, a touch of Tuscany and above all a lot of love for home go into this Bensberg Dry Gin. With hand-picked herbs and botanicals such as rosemary, thyme, citrus and 5 other ingredients, you can enjoy a classic gin with a very round and smooth finish. A must have for every gin friend, even beyond the borders of Bensberg. Cheers Translated by Google Translated by Google
