Bareksten Botanical Gin is a London Dry Gin crafted in Bergen, Norway by Stig Bareksten, built on a base of neutral potato spirit for a round, full mouthfeel. It's distilled with 26 botanicals, 19 of them foraged locally in Norway, and bottled at 46% ABV (92 proof).

An Expression of the Norwegian Wilderness

Norwegian herbs, potatoes, and berries fight an intense, slow, and never-ending battle in extreme environments, and only the strongest and most stubborn survive. Bareksten set out to capture that wild, untamed character in a single bottle, foraging local botanicals and trialing distillations for four years before landing on the final recipe. The result is a gin with a clear Norwegian identity: dark, wild, and dramatic.

26 Botanicals, Carefully Distilled

Alongside classic gin botanicals like juniper and coriander, Bareksten includes wild blueberries, lingonberries, elderberries, elderflower, rhubarb, mint, chamomile, and angelica, among others. The more delicate botanicals, including flowers, citrus, and rhubarb, are suspended in a basket inside the still, while the rest macerate in the spirit for a full 24 hours before distillation.

Tasting Notes

  • Nose: fresh pine and woody juniper, with earthy, minty-eucalyptus undertones.
  • Palate: strong and well-balanced, with harmonious juniper, wild blueberry, lingonberry, and forest floor.
  • Finish: dry and peppery, with a mineral quality from Norway's flinty limestone water.

How to Enjoy It

Its round, full mouthfeel makes it excellent neat or in a martini with an olive, but it also makes a standout Gin & Tonic: serve over ice with premium tonic, two halved cherry tomatoes, and a few coriander leaves.
