Crafter's London Dry Gin
Crafters Aromatic Flower Gin
Colour changing Crafters Aromatic Flower Gin

Crafter's is a Nordic gin brand that includes classic London Dry Gin and Aromatic Flower Gin produced by Estonian distillery Liviko. Both gins are handcrafted in Estonia, copper-pot distilled and made in small batches.[1] In 2018 Liviko exported Crafter's gin to 25 countries.[2] The juniper berries used in the making of Crafter's gin are reused in the Re-crafted Crafter's handcrafted beverages, as the berries retain a valuable part of their flavour even after distillation.[3] Liviko was nominated to World Beverage Innovation Award in 2019 for its zero-waste product innovation that lead to a new category of drinks.[4][5]

Products

London Dry gin

Classic dry gin Crafter's London Dry Gin was launched in 2015.[1] Its recipe, known as Recipe No. 23, is declared on the bottle and includes veronica and fennel seeds.[1] The character of Crafter's London Dry gin comes from veronica, a herb picked from the wilderness of Estonia, which together with juniper berries and fennel seeds forms a fresh and lively bouquet of flavours.[6]

Colour changing gin

Crafter's Aromatic Flower Gin has a colour changing effect: the infusion of rosehip petals contains a natural pigment that gives the gin a copper colour. When mixed with tonic, the drink turns light pink due to the acidity of the tonic.[6] The colour change is all natural thanks to rose hip flower pigments.[7] Aromatic Flower Gin is a blend of 12 aromatic botanicals,[8] the ingredients are inspired by the Nordic nature. The main aromatic botanicals are rosehip, rose petals, meadowsweet, chamomile, elderflower and lavender.[8] Crafter's Aromatic Flower Gin was first showcased at TFWA World Exhibition 2017.[1]

Distillation

London Dry Gin has No. 23 and Aromatic Flower Gin No. 38 on the bottle – to mark the number of recipes tested before production.[9] Crafter's gins are distilled using the herb-based pot still method to achieve a rich soft taste. This distillation method has been used at Liviko since the beginning of the last century.[6] Liviko started manufacturing Crafter's London Dry Gin in 2015 and Crafter's Aromatic Flower Gin in 2017.[2] Crafter's was the official gin at The Scene at the TFWA World Exhibition in Cannes, in 2018.[1]
