Buy Gin in Grindelwald

Beneath the Eiger north face, guests from around the world seek the alpine original — in the glass it is called Johann Gin, distilled on the mountains’ southern side.

From the Rhône valley to Grindelwald

Grindelwald lives facing a wall that wrote alpine history. On the other side of the four-thousanders, in the Rhône valley, we write our smaller story: with larch wood, gentian and mountain berries in the still. Two valley sides, one range, one taste.

The distilling happens at Salzmann Distillery in Raron — a family operation in the heart of the Rhône valley. Valais wine replaces neutral spirit; the botanicals come from the valley and the mountains above. You can taste it: soft entry, alpine profile, long finish.
