OUR STORY
ASKUR

ASKUR’s name comes from Nordic mythology and is the name of the
tree of life.
It is believed that ASKUR was located in the center of the Nordic universe joining together the nine worlds of Nordic cosmology.
This name reflects our approach of sourcing the best ingredients around the world which in the case are all from the old Northern Europe.
ASKUR gin is in the center of the world of where our hand selected ingredients come from.

THE EXPERIENCE
“Our base spirit is carbon filtered and then blended with our gin distillate which are rectified together at our Icelandic facility and then finished off by proofing it with Icelandic water before we bottle it to create this clean crisp London Dry gin.”
– Kristjan Olafsson
Askur Gin received the prestigious Double Gold Medal at the 2020 Sip Awards, the International consumer tasting event in Irvine, California. The SIP Awards is the only annual International Spirit Competition that presents a unique, spirit-judging competition, unaffected by industry bias.
“By eliminating industry influence, the SIP Awards medals reflect public opinion on the essential characteristics of a quality spirit”.
