Just like the hoopoe, which flies through forests and heathlands with grace and a will of its own, HOOPOES spirits should also inspire the senses:
bold, fresh, harmonious, and full of personality.

The bird, which fortunately is once again enriching the landscape, showed us how diversity and elegance harmoniously interact in nature – a harmony we wanted to capture in our spirits.

For us, Julius Steinborn, landscape architect, and Christian Franke, mechanical engineer, this was the inspiration for a very special project.

And so we contributed our respective expertise:
Julius Steinborn, who perceives the landscape with all his senses, understood how aromas reflect nature and create a feeling of vastness, tranquility, and forest air.
Christian Franke, the mechanical engineer, ensured that this fleeting elegance could be precisely captured: every ingredient, every process step, every bottle was so carefully thought out that the result is a product that not only tastes good but touches all the senses.

The result: a gin whose taste is like a walk through the heathland – the sweetness of blooming heather, the freshness of pine needles, the clear water of a forest stream on the tongue, accompanied by a touch of sun and wind.
