The Better Thing to Bring

The third wine bottle of the evening goes unnoticed. A bottle of Valais gin does not: it gets examined, discussed — and often opened that same evening.

Why gin starts the conversation

A good host gift gives the evening something to talk about. Johann Gin brings several stories: a family distillery in Raron, a base of Valais wine instead of neutral spirit, larch wood and gentian from the mountains. And if the hosts have tonic in the house, the gift becomes the apéro.

Always a bottle in the house

The practical tip: order two or three bottles in advance so spontaneous invitations never catch you empty-handed. Delivered from the online shop within a few working days — or at selected stockists in your region if it has to be faster (see the stockists map).

Frequently Asked Questions

Which gin works as a host gift?

Rarner Gin is the all-rounder — fruity enough for newcomers, interesting enough for connoisseurs. In winter, reach for Hiemalis.

What if the hosts do not drink gin?

A beautiful bottle with a regional story also works as an object — and gin keeps for years. Sooner or later the right occasion comes.
