Mangrove UK has joined forces with Empirical to distribute the Copenhagen-based distillery’s spirits and RTDs.
Empirical’s founders, Lars Williams and Mark Emil Hermansen, have been creating spirits in their distillery since 2017. The duo said that “flavour is everything” and they are not afraid to experiment and innovate in their quest to find the perfect combinations. Their flavour inspiration comes from around the world. The two worked together at Noma, the two-Michelin star restaurant in Copenhagen, where Williams ran the test kitchen and Hermansen joined as concept manager, after completing his thesis on Nordic food at Oxford University.
