"I Suppose I ought to drink something or other, but the great question is WHAT?"
Lawis Carroll / Alice in wonderland
Welcome to the wonderful world of Jullius – the first artisan distillery in Israel
The distillery was founded in 2008, with one dream in mind: to distill the highest quality, handcrafted alcohol from only the finest, local ingredients.
However, the pursuit of quality and locality is only part of the story. Distillation is first and foremost a form of art. It is a sublime way to turn raw materials into spirit and spirit into liquid. Many refer to the production of alcohol as a chemical action, or as an industrial act. It is the belief of Jullius, that the drinking of alcoholic beverages belongs to the world of the alchemists. The ancient Chinese and Arab alchemists dreamed of the philosopher’s stone “elixir” – a substance that could convert any metal into gold. Our philosopher’s stone is the pot still. As for the alcohol? Alcohol is pure gold!
