About Kännu Kukk

Kännu Kukk is the liqueur Liviko has made since 1900, when the recipe reached Estonia — the company's own history says probably from Germany or the Netherlands — and production began at the Tallinn distillery. It is the oldest brand in the portfolio by some distance, older than the Liviko name itself, which the company only adopted in 1971, and it survived every change of ownership and regime the building went through in between.
