1823 saw the foundation of a Russian distillery in the village of Allasch, in the region of Livonia near Russia’s Baltic Port of Riga. Over twenty or so years the Allasch distillery quietly developed its business, establishing a reputation for its Kummel, the schnapps-like liqueur flavoured with caraway seed. During this time other European Liqueur manufacturers began to imitate the increasing famous liqueur; however none succeeded to match the genuine finesse of the original recipe. In the early 1850’s a talented export manager named Ludwig Mentzendorff arranged the now popular liqueur for export to the UK under the name ‘Mentzendorff Kummel’. Mentzendorff Kümmel has been distilled, true to the original recipe by Combier Distillery, Loire Valley since 1985 in their world famous distillery designed by Gustave Eiffel. Mentzendorff Kümmel is a schnapps-like liqueur flavoured with a variant of the caraway seed. With powerful, lifted aromas of aniseed, liquorice and cumin, served ice cold at the end of a meal, this sweet liqueur is a wonderful way to end an evening.
