In 2013, Icelandic artist Óskar Ericsson created a homemade gin. Intended to be the perfect fishing companion he used to take it along on fishing trips in the Icelandic wilderness.
Inspired by the scents of herbs that grow along the banks of rivers, the gin was an ode to the river and was named after the Himbrimi, which is the Icelandic name of the Common Loon, a bird well-known to all Icelandic fishermen.
Himbrimi gin was among the first gin produced in Iceland (2016), and it is also the first London Dry gin in the Country.
Brunnur Distillery is the founder of the Distillery association of Iceland. Their Old Tom won WGA best world Old Tom in 2019 and London Dry scored 95 points IWSC 2022. They are the most exported Icelandic gin.
