Kühne's story began in 1722, when Johann Daniel Epinius established a vinegar distillery in Berlin. In 1832, Carl Ernst Wilhelm Kühne gave the company its name and pioneered modern vinegar-making techniques. From these beginnings, Kühne has grown into one of Europe's most trusted producers of pickles, sauerkraut, dressings and condiments.

As Germany's No.1 gherkin brand, we are proud to work with long-term contracted farmers to ensure 100% of our gherkins are sustainably grown, handpicked at peak freshness, and freshly packed in Germany. We also produce our own vinegar, giving every jar the perfect balance of flavour and crunch.

Our commitment to quality is uncompromising: no artificial additives, flavour enhancers or preservatives – just carefully selected ingredients, prepared with eco-friendly, certified processes. This dedication has earned Kühne multiple Great Taste Awards and the loyalty of consumers across generations.

For us, food is about heritage and innovation, always guided by one promise: We love true taste.
