Himbrimi
Introducing Himbrimi Gin from Iceland is an exceptional and small-batch crafted spirit. Icelandic artist Óskar Ericsson masterfully crafted this homemade gin as a tribute to the rugged, untamed beauty of the Icelandic wilderness. Infused with a balanced blend of locally sourced herbs and spices, Himbrimi captures the essence of the Icelandic riverside and its teeming wildlife. Himbrimi is the Icelandic name for the common loon, a bird whose otherworldly call signals spring and the start of fishing season in Iceland. From the first sip, you'll be struck by the unmistakable aroma of juniper, coriander, and angelica, which are meticulously blended with other select botanicals. The Himbrimi Gin is an ode to nature, an invitation to explore, and a celebration of the Icelandic way of life. Let this exquisite gin awaken your senses and transport you straight to the heart of Iceland's wilderness.
The event is free, but guests must be 18 years and older with a valid ID to attend.
