The gentle kümmel spirit of Kremper Marsch

The town of Krempe is the central municipality of the Kremper Marsch and is located between Glückstadt, Itzehoe, and Elmshorn. Krempe is the smallest town in Holstein. It was first mentioned in documents in 1234 and received a municipal charter in 1239.

From 1535, Krempe was entrusted to the Danish King Christian III. A wide moat was dug, bastions were built, and four city gates were installed. The fortress was the second largest in Holstein after Rendsburg. At that time, the city was enjoying economic prosperity. The products of the fertile marshland were exported to Arkhangelsk, Venice, and Lisbon via the Kremper Au, which was still navigable at the time. The fortress fell in 1628 after a siege of several months by Wallenstein's troops. The surrendered city commander is said to have pointed a rat at Wallenstein's face with the following words: "That's the last one. If we wait any longer, we'll wait any longer!"

Kümmel or Köm is a liqueur similar to the traditional aquavit from northern Germany. It can be drunk cold or hot; in a tea punch. The caraway herb used in this distillate stimulates the appetite, relaxes, and aids digestion.

Kremper kümmel is characterized by a special smoothness without seeming too sweet. It is handcrafted in a traditional way and produced in small batches.
