Buy Gin in Lausanne

From Lake Geneva to the Rhône valley is just a short hop. Johann Gin from Raron brings the Valais mountains to the bars — and home bars — of Lausanne.

Neighbours in the Rhône valley

Living in Lausanne, the Valais is almost on your doorstep: one train hour along the Rhône and the vineyards give way to apricot orchards and larch forests. Right there, in Raron, we distil Johann Gin — in small batches, on a base of Valais wine.

You can taste that closeness: our botanicals come from the very landscape where many Lausannois spend their weekends.

Three gins for every occasion

The fruity Rarner Gin for an apéro in Ouchy, the spiced Hiemalis for cold evenings, the clean gentian-led Solstice for a perfect Martini — all three are available in the online shop, plus at selected stockists (see the map).

Orders are delivered by post to Lausanne within a few working days. Or combine your purchase with a day trip: distillery tastings can be requested online.
