Dr. Jaglas

Dr. Jaglas is a Berlin apothecary brand that produces handmade alcohol-free aperitifs and herbal elixirs from a family pharmacy, drawing on recipes traceable across several decades. The brand continues the work of pharmacist Dr. Christina Jagla, whose formulas form the foundation of the range; pharmacist Helmut W. Jagla was already extending those recipes by the late 1960s. Some base formulas derive from the Pharmacopoea Germanica, the official German pharmacopoeia, while others trace to centuries-old traditions.

All production takes place in Germany. The brand uses a multi-small-batch approach, meaning each product is produced in several small runs rather than a single large batch, and all recipes are developed in-house. Bottles are brown glass, chosen for light protection.

The ingredient list reflects the pharmacy background. Bitter herbs including Tausendgüldenkraut (centaury), Enzian (gentian), and Zitwerwurzel (zedoary root) feature throughout, alongside many herbs of regional German origin.

Dr. Jaglas positions its alcohol-free range as alternatives to established European aperitifs and botanicals, with Aperol, Limoncello, Paloma, and Campari cited as reference points. The portfolio spans alcohol-free aperitifs, herbal elixirs, and ready-to-drink cocktail formats. The range suits Dry January and sober-curious drinkers who want herb-driven character in place of a classic aperitif.

Dr. Jaglas also produces alcoholic products, including herbal bitters, liqueurs, and gin, maintaining the apothecary model in which pharmacy specialties with and without alcohol sit within a single range.
