HIMKOK Storgata Destilleri
About
HIMKOK Storgata Destilleri at 27 Storgata in Oslo is a living showcase of Norwegian craftsmanship and contemporary cocktail culture. The venue houses a fully operational micro‑distillery that produces aquavit, gin and vodka using sustainable, data‑driven methods, and proudly sits on the World’s 50 Best Bars list for six consecutive years. Upon arrival you’ll find a vibrant cocktail bar where seasoned mixologists create bespoke beverages that marry local ingredients with global techniques. The space is both a bar and a learning hub: visitors can taste the distillery’s flagship spirits, watch small‑batch production, and even book private tasting sessions or consulting engagements. HIMKOK’s unique blend of production, hospitality consulting, and event services means the destination appeals not only to cocktail lovers but also to businesses seeking to elevate their own bars. Whether you drop in for a nightly drink, attend a course, or book a private event, the atmosphere is warm, open, and deeply rooted in Norwegian tradition. With opening hours from 5 p.m. to midnight (and until 3 a.m. on Thursdays‑to‑Saturdays) the venue offers a relaxed, late‑evening experience during which friends can mingle, try resident cocktails, and explore the distillery’s inner workings. The combination of craft spirits, expert mixology, and a focus on sustainability makes HIMKOK a must‑visit destination in Oslo’s dynamic nightlife scene.
