All about Siegfried distillery
Rheinland Distillers is a Spirits manufacturer in
Bonn Germany. The distillery was founded in
2014 by Gerald Koenen & Raphael Vollmar, two entrepreneurs who themselves do not come from the Spirits business, but share an unparalleled passion for it.
Vollmar is managing director of Vollmar&Sons - a company specializing in luxury goods in the Bonn city center. Gerald Koenen works as a consultant for Internet start-ups, as well as a managing director. Both share the love of hand-made, regional products with character - and a weakness for
high-quality Spirit.
A year after its founding, their highly acclaimed distillery took the prize for
"Germany Gin Distillery of the Year,” at the New York International Spirits Competition in 2015, and is home to their award winning
Siegfried Rhineland Dry Gin.
Launched in
2015, the German Gin received
countless accolades all over the world within just one year of its release, starting with the honor of being awarded Best Gin at the Hong Kong International Wine & Spirit Competition.
Shortly after that distinction, the Gin was awarded a
Double Gold in Copenhagen at the
World Spirits Awards, and received the
highest score ever to be reached by a German Gin. The Gin also won a
Gold medal at the
San Francisco World Spirit Competition.
Siegfried’s Rheinland Dry Gin is a product from the
Rhine Region. Siegfried uses the mythical linden blooms as their lead botanical, which is synonymous with the legend of Seifried. It's a
classic Dry Gin, composed of
18 botanicals, with a defined subtle taste, and honest, authentic, regional character.
