Sustainable production

The special main ingredient in Needle Gin is hand-picked, young spruce shoots from the Black Forest, which are added during the distillation process and, together with other finely balanced botanicals, provide the spicy and woody flavor. In order to protect our environment and nature and to ensure long-term production with fresh ingredients, careful use of natural resources is essential and unavoidable.

Dealing with
natural resources

NEEDLE also follows a clear principle in production. Energy is not simply consumed, but further thought. At the Black Forest site, a closed cycle is created in which existing resources are used consistently.

From Fruit kernels energy is generated. Regional wood chips supplement the process if necessary. Heat generated during distillation is not lost, but is stored and reused. This not only powers the distillation process, but also heats the entire building. Heat recovery system ensures that large quantities of water are saved every day.

Projects for people,
the environment and our climate

At NEEDLE, sustainability is not only evident in production, but also beyond. By supporting selected climate protection projects, responsibility is taken further.

Among other things, the Bimmerle distillery supports the climate protection project "Revier Augustenhof" in the district of Vorpommern-Rügen and the Kasungu Boreholes project in Malawiwhich improves access to clean drinking water.
