With over over 100 years of experience, Alte Hausbrennerei Penninger is considered the leading distiller of traditional Bavarian specialty spirits. Their organic gin is made from 22 botanicals, including native roots and herbs from the Bavarian Forest (such as melissa, bald-money and the gentian root) as well as classic gin spices and herbs including lemon, coriander and cardamom. Following distillation, it's matured for several months in traditional earthenware vats before being filtered through granite stones of varying sizes. The distiller's add: "For this we utilise the so-called "Oxy-Esterator". This originates from the 1960s and has taken pride of place in the Penninger Bavarian Schnaps Museum for over 20 years. This masterpiece of German engineering has been fully restored and filled with hand-cut granite stones. The granite used in the distilling process come from the historic granite cutter's town Hauzenberg, deep in the Bavarian Forest. This inspired us to name the gin GRANIT in honour of our use of local techniques and traditions".

Every bottle of Granit Gin comes with one of these granite stones attached. This can be placed in the freezer and used as an ice cube. This prevents the drink from becoming watered down and is guaranteed to be a conversation starter!
