Lyng Norwegian Botanical Gin is a premium Norwegian gin produced by Det Norske Brenneri. Inspired by the resilient heather plant, known as "lyng" in Norwegian, this gin captures the essence of Norway's wild nature. It is crafted using 33 herbs, spices, and flowers, including heather blossom, coltsfoot, elderflower, birch leaves, roseroot, and angelica, all harvested from Norwegian mountains and forests.
Det Norske Brenneri, established in 2011, is one of Norway's leading producers of alcoholic beverages, based in Grimstad, in the Agder region. As the first private distillery to receive a license to produce spirits following the abolition of the state monopoly in 2005, the distillery is dedicated to preserving Norwegian artisanal traditions, producing in small batches to ensure the highest quality of its products.
