New York
Heimat is an exciting new line of handcrafted liqueurs made in Mamaroneck, NY. Heimat New York (pronounced HI-maht) was founded by Ute Londrigan, who was born and raised in Germany and grew up amidst all the wonderful traditions that Germany has to offer. Fruit liqueurs were, and still are, commonplace in the area. Ute's grandmother made them herself from fruit in her backyard for the family's own use, typically after the afternoon's traditional coffee and cake ("Kaffeeklatsch"). Ute dabbled with her liqueurs over the years but it wasn't until she and her family moved to New York - with the wide variety of fresh fruits at her doorstep, friendly and engaging farmers, and friends who appreciated the taste and authenticity - did the idea really take off. After two years of planning, licensing, creating contacts with farmers, and a whole lot of support from her friends and family, Ute opened the doors to Heimat New York in November 2018.
In late spring, we make a trip up to one of our favorite and one of the more picturesque farms in the Hudson Valley. There we begin hand selecting the elderflower blossoms at peak bloom and fragrance. Just a short drive later, naturally on the same day, we begin crafting the flowers into one of our most unique and aromatic liqueurs that combines a delicate body with a long, memorable finish. A match made in heaven with Champagne or Prosecco, our newest liqueur is sure to please the most demanding of connoisseurs to those who just want to enjoy a distinctive cocktail.
