Helbing Kümmelschnaps is a traditional Hamburg spirit and is one of Germany's best-known caraway liqueurs. With an alcohol content of 32% vol. and bottled in a 0.7-litre bottle, it represents over 180 years of northern German distilling artistry. The Helbing brand, founded in 1836 by Johann Peter Hinrich Helbing, is still closely associated with the Hanseatic city of Hamburg and stands for authenticity, quality and North German drinking culture.


It is made from caraway seeds, whose spicy, herbal flavour gives Helbing Kümmelschnaps its unmistakable character. Combined with a subtle sweetness and a fine mildness, the result is a clear, aromatic spirit that is a winner both on its own and in mixed drinks.

The Helbing Kümmel schnapps is traditionally enjoyed ice-cold neat and is a classic in northern German bars and pubs. It is ideal as a digestif after hearty meals, especially with fish specialities, Labskaus or kale with Pinkel. It is also often served in combination with a cool beer and is considered an integral part of North German drinking culture. Its clear flavour also makes it suitable for creative cocktails with herbal or spicy notes.
