Our Story
Nordic River Is producing GIN and Vodka in the mill house of the historical Hunsfos Fabrikker. With a focus on craft and quality. The factory production used to be a paper factory in the olden days, and we have integrated elements from its past into the modern distillery. It’s all about keeping Hunsfos’ industrial history, values and culture alive.
Nordic River arranges guided tours and GIN tastings at the Distillery, allowing people to learn a little bit more about the history and production process and, of course, sample the results. They wish to not only get to taste the Gin, but also learn to love the art and passion of craft GIN. “Our focus is on GIN as an actual craft. It’s not just another product – it’s an art, say CEO Gjøran Thomassen. “We make the products we want to make and which we enjoy the taste of, as well as products we feel are lacking from the assortment.
Gins And Art
Nordic River is available nationwide at Vinmonopolet (the government-owned retailer), and at the Taxfree area at the airports in Norway, you can of course also get it served in restaurants Just ask the bartender.
On the first Friday of each month, we open the factory doors for craft GIN lovers to come in and have a look and try some of the products. In addition to distillery related events, concerts and dances. The venue has capacity for 700 people, making it ideal for events.
