Hosting Groups at the Jullius Distillery

Jullius Distillery was founded in 2008 by Yuval (Joov) Har Gil, and currently operates in Kibbutz Hanita, facing an open and inspiring Galilean landscape. On the spot, Joov creates handcrafted alcohol distillates, using an advanced German distillation facility. The distillery produces gin under the “Akko” brand, grape distillates in the Eau-de-Vie style, and those harvested from the fruits of the Galilee ― including plums, strawberries, etrogs, apricots, and a variety of other seasonal fruits.
All production stages are done by manual and completely natural processes ― from the selection of the agricultural raw materials, through the distillation, to the bottling, and packaging. This method of working, together with small and controlled distillation cycles, ensures that every Jullius bottle is a unique, high-quality, and rare creation, bearing a serial number and a personal signature.

The Jullius Distillery operates out of a commitment to the principles of sustainability and is considered one of the few distilleries in the world powered by solar energy. All distillery products are kosher.
