About Savhuset
We have always been fascinated by the idea of trying to develop systems where the distance between sunlight and use or function is short and unconstrained. Such systems or products usually create effective, sustainable and dynamic conditions for minimal health and environmental impact if used properly, Sav™ is part of such a system. Sav™ is in many ways a unique winery - but also so much more than that. It is the ambassador of northern spring and reflects the soul of the north.
The heart in our products is the birch sap, a raw material that has been used in our Arctic regions since ancient times as an important nutritional supplement to refill our vitamin levels after a long, dark winter.
50 km around Storsjön
Our birch sap is harvested from birch trees growing up to 5 km from Storsjön. Here the birch grows wonderfully, and the mineral rich soil helps the sap to be produced and create the beneficial nutrition’s and vitamins.
The deep forests of Jämtland
We find our inspiration in the forests, here in Jämtland the forest is close at hand. Its very important for us to take care of the forests in which we operate. Our methods mean that we never damage the trees when we harvest birch sap.
Our history
The Swedish chemical engineer and researcher Gunnar Jegrelius built an amazing archive for thirty years. He collected research reports, dissertations, essays, manuscripts, newspaper articles and books from the years 1700 to 1981 on more than 200,000 chemical substances and their impact on people and the environment.
The archive fell into oblivion and was eventually moved to Östersund where eco-engineer Peter Mosten was commissioned to compile an index of the archive in order to facilitate research. During the work, Mosten found a recipe written from a Swedish book printed in 1785, the recipe that today forms the basis for all our products.
