Originally a popular pharmaceutical elixir, Kranebet uses carefully selected ingredients and artisanal distillation techniques creating a harmonious spirit, free from artificial flavouring and colours.
Delicious in a sophisticated version of a G&T or a decadent Negroni, Kranebet is perfect for gin lovers looking to explore something new in the world of juniper.
Kranebet, is made through the slow distillation of hand-picked juniper berries, using a traditional copper still at the Rossi d'Asiago distillery. Other botanicals include gentian root, roman absinthe, coriander seeds and quassia bark, which bring delicate bitter and herbaceous notes with hints of wood.
The name Kranebet comes from the cimbric word “kraneveta” that literally means “bitter grains”, the name given to the juniper plant by the Cimbrian population that used to live in the Italian pre-Alps.
Kranebet can be enjoyed neat, chilled on the rocks, or mixed in the KranebeTonic, a delicious and refreshing botanical aperitif. The characteristic aromaticity and sweetness make it ideal to be mixed in plentiful cocktails, including an exclusive series created by multi award-winning bartender and founder of Kwant, Erik Lorincz.

The Rossi D'Asiago distillery was founded in 1868 in Asiago, an enchanted small town in the Italian mountains, by the pharmacist Rossi, who created elixirs and distillates by infusion of medicinal herbs.
In 1924 Rossi created Kranebet, which soon became a recognized brand in the local territory. Rossi D'Asiago is also the producer of internationally recognized brands such as Antica Sambuca and Volare Liqueurs.
