The small, cozy café El Rojito in Hamburg Ottensen has been offering the finest coffee and other specialties for 10 years.

Café and roastery

El Rojito isn't simply a café – every fair-trade bean that finally ends up in the coffee mug is roasted at El Rojito itself. There is a wide range of coffee specialities, both espresso-based and freshly filtered. In addition, delicious cakes from the organic confectioner Eichel and strudels are on offer, and from Tuesdays to Saturdays they serve croissants and other delicious pastries from the pâtisserie. By the way, most of the delicious assortment is organic and vegan. There are a few seats in the sun in front of the door, but there is more space in the quiet café garden in the backyard.

Fair trade coffee from Hamburg

El Rojito's roasts can not only be enjoyed in the Hamburg café, but also bought here and online. The coffee is sourced directly from cooperatives according to the principles of fair trade, without middlemen or speculators making a buck. Like the baked specialities in the café, most of El Rojito's coffees come from controlled organic cultivation.

Brennerei Elmendorf

The "Gin School" experience at the Elmendorf distillery offers participants the opportunity to distil their own personalised gin according to their own recipe in a 4-hour workshop under expert guidance. The Schnapps Journey experience is an excursion into the world of spirits tasting, where the aromas and flavours of high-quality spirits are being discovered.

Then as now, the spirits are made by hand from purely organic ingredients. The exquisite organic grain matures in centuries-old oak barrels, which give Elmendorf Korn its uniquely characteristic flavour. The gin "URGROSSVATER" is distilled at the in-house distillery "Henriette". The recipe is based on a refined, centuries-old family recipe, which today contains over 12 high-quality organic botanicals. Other distillates such as the lime spirit and Hamburg caraway are also carefully handcrafted on site. Hamburg caraway is Hamburg's first and only organic caraway.

North German cuisine in maritime flair Hobenköök

Hobenköök is a colorful bunch of employees who are committed to agriculture fit for grandchildren, who all treat each other with respect and each:r makes his or her contribution to ensuring that the world will be available for us and the next generations for a long time to come.

The basis for this is that Hobenköök has probably the most sustainable value chain in all of Hamburg. Almost all food products are certified organic, regional and seasonal. In the middle of HafenCity, Hobenköök combines these into real treats. You can taste these directly in the restaurant or take them home from the market hall.

Hobenköök acts exclusively in a sustainable and respectful manner, be it with employees, producers or the environment. Therefore, the direct marketing is in the foreground.
