KLOSTER KITCHEN GINGER SHOTS AND SUSTAINABILITY

So now we know what sustainability means in theory. But what about our specific practices? We'll show you why our ginger shots are sustainable. ↓

ORGANIC PRODUCT: ORGANIC? LOGICAL!

All our products are organically certified and made with the best organic ingredients. Of course, organic does not automatically mean sustainable. But an organic seal indicates a respectful and thoughtful approach to ingredients. Since the monks who developed our old monastery recipe also placed great importance on this, we wanted to include this important detail – in a modernized version in the form of an organic seal.

VEGAN: VENI, VIDI, VEGAN.

Vegan... isn't that just some fad? Or is it? No! Especially when it comes to sustainability, vegan products offer compelling arguments. For example, less water, land, and energy are needed for the production of plant-based foods compared to animal husbandry and meat production. Animal husbandry also generates a significant amount of greenhouse gases. Intensive agriculture and livestock farming often lead to habitat destruction and loss of biodiversity. Vegan foods, on the other hand, help reduce this negative impact. And that's exactly what we want!

Bonus: A vegan diet can reduce the risk of heart disease, obesity, and other health problems.

Did you know...

Our diet causes 21 percent of all greenhouse gases.

In Germany, 21 percent of greenhouse gas emissions are attributable to our diet – for example, for cultivation, processing, storage, or transport. Animal products produce a particularly large amount of CO₂.

What you can do:

Opt for vegan, regional, seasonal, and organic products more often.

BEST-BEFORE DATE: LASTS FOREVER. ALMOST.

And what's good about that? It just means the product is full of chemicals!

Well, at least for our ginger shots, that statement is completely false. Because we don't use any artificial additives!

Now that we've cleared that up, again: Why is a long best-before date good?

Quite simply, if food has a long best-before date, you have more time to consume it before it spoils. You don't throw the product away, and thus food waste is reduced. Our ginger shots can be stored for up to 2 years from bottling. More than enough time for you to enjoy our shots without worrying about the best-before date!

Did you know...

Almost a third of all food ends up in the trash.

According to the Federal Ministry of Food and Agriculture, around 12 million tons of food are thrown away in Germany every year.

What you can do:

For example, plan your purchases carefully so that nothing is left over. You can also make food last longer through proper storage and use food-sharing services.
