‘Vor’ is Icelandic for spring and its maker’s say the Arctic spring and “the sharp taste of an Icelandic summer” inspired them to make this gin flavoured with a blend of wild Icelandic juniper berries, rhubarb and other Icelandic herbs. Vor is made using a base spirit made from 100% organic

Icelandic barley grown on the Eastern shore of Iceland by Vallanes.

Only native Icelandic herbs and botanicals are used, either wild picked from the highlands of Iceland or organically grown locally:

- wild picked Icelandic juniper berries
- organically grown Icelandic rhubarb
- wild picked Icelandic crowberries
- wild picked Icelandic angelica root
- wild picked Icelandic birch leaves
- wild picked Icelandic creeping thyme
- organically grown Icelandic kale
- wild picked Iceland moss
- wild picked Icelandic sweet kelp

VOR is non-chill filtered in order to preserve flavours. Consequently the gin is liable to hazing when mixed.
