We are proud that this spirit retains the name of our founder, Ludwig Mentzendorff, who first brought Mentzendorff Kummel to
London in the 1850s at the behest of the Baron von Blanckenhagen.

The Baron had established the Allasch distillery on his country estate near Riga in the 1820s to produce Kummel to his family’s
private recipe. Upon its arrival in Britain, this clear, aniseed liqueur flavoured with caraway seeds made its mark on the British
palate as ‘the principal liqueur of Russia’.

Today, Mentzendorff Kummel is held in high regard by golf clubs who offer post-round doses of ‘putting mixture’, and with
bartenders who appreciate its complex and stimulating flavour that is ripe for cocktail experimentation.

Mentzendorff Kummel
Tasting Notes: Powerful, lifted aromas of aniseed, cumin
and hints of orange zest on the nose. A sweet liqueur,
filling the mouth with flavours of caraway and white
pepper. Liquorice notes linger on the finish, striking a great
balance of sweetness and spice.

How to Serve: A wonderful way to end a meal,
Mentzendorff Kummel – served ice cold – is great as a
digestif and an interesting addition to cocktails.
