The car-free glacier village lives at 1,800 metres among four-thousanders — even a gin can hardly aim higher.

Johann Gin in Saas-Fee

The “Pearl of the Alps” knows no cars but plenty of hospitality — from glacier restaurant to hut bar. This high-altitude air calls for a gin whose botanicals know it too: blueberry, gentian and larch wood from the Valais mountains.

Behind Johann Gin stand Robin and Prisca Salzmann, distilling in Raron on a Valais wine base — with apricots from the valley, berries from the mountains and larch wood from the forests above the distillery. Small batches, a clear signature: Rarner, Hiemalis and Solstice.
