THE STORY

Von der Idee zum fertigen Produkt

HOW IT ALL BEGAN

Our story begins in June 2013: While visiting English gin distilleries, the current managing directors Merlin Kofler and Oliver Honegger decided to develop their own gin. Together with their two friends Philip Angst and Oscar Martin, they put this idea into practice within two years.

One thing was at the forefront of the development: we wanted to create a gin 'from Zurich for Zurich' to honor the character of our homeland and at the same time celebrate it beyond the city limits. The ever-growing popularity proves us right.

Turicum Gin is now sold through selected retailers and shops in Switzerland, Austria, Germany, Gibraltar and Hong Kong. Distribution in other countries is currently being planned.
