About EGO
Ego Distillers
Ego Distillers was founded in 2023, out of curiosity and an urge to explore what spirits can be. What will the future taste like? What will people want to drink, and how will they enjoy it?
That led us to challenge old assumptions, learn every part of the process and create spirits on our own terms. Today, every Ego spirit is developed and distilled by us in Gamlestaden, from the first idea to the finished bottle.
From still to glass
Our spirits are made to stand on their own, delicious when served neat or over ice. But cocktails have always been an important part of Ego, as well.
Because we make the spirits ourselves, we can develop the spirit and the cocktail as one complete idea. Every botanical, flavour and ingredient is considered from the beginning, giving us control over the entire experience.
Our cocktails are batched and bottled in-house before service. This gives the flavours time to come together and ensures that every drink is served exactly as intended, consistent from the first to the last drop.
Ego Studio
Ego Studio is where we give new ideas room to develop.
An experiment might begin with an ingredient, a thought or feeling we can't quite let go of. New techniques are tested, small batches come and go, and not every idea is expected to fit neatly into an existing category.
Some experiments eventually become part of our permanent range. Others are made once and never repeated. So if something from Ego Studio finds its way into your glass, try it while it lasts.
The old engine room
Our distillery is housed in the former engine room of Gamlestadens Fabriker, once at the centre of Gothenburg’s textile industry.
Today, our towering copper still stands where machinery once powered the factory. This is where every Ego spirit takes shape, and where we continue to explore what comes next.
