Frederiksberg Distillery is located in the basement of the City Hall of Frederiksberg, an independent municipality
surrounded by Copenhagen. Some sources ambiguously refer to Frederiksberg as a quarter of Copenhagen but
people have been living here since the bronze age, and still today Frederiksberg has its own mayor and
municipal council - and is fiercely independent.
Frederiksberg is characterised by its many green spaces, such as the Frederiksberg Gardens and Søndermarken,
and the philosophy of Frederiksberg Distillery is to source from the great supply of local botanicals and making
seasonal and good quality spirits such as gin, akvavit, liqueurs, vodka and bitters.
Frederiksberg Rådhus Akvavit is made in a customized pot still with caraway sous vide, roasted acorn from
Frederiksberg Gardens, licorice root, coriander seeds and fresh lemon peel. After distilling, the gin is brought to
our destillery in Kirke Såby where only the purest water from our own natural artesian well is added before
bottling.
