Description

Specialties

Handmade, traditional sausages from around the world and fine cheeses. From barbecue bratwurst, fine salamis and prosciutto hams to sandwich meats, we have it all. All sausages are handcrafted by a 5th generation sausage maker.

History

Established in 2012.

The store was opened by Jens Hertha and Thorsten Stock, son of sausage maker Drews Driessen who proudly crafts all our sausages. Drews is a man intent on bringing the best of old world back. A fifth-​generation sausage maker from Germany, Drews settled in Canada 21 years ago. After stints in commercial plants, the call of the casings grew too strong. Drews had to go back to sausage making and put his 35 years of experience to work. He began with a secretive workshop off Main Street, crafting smoked and air-​cured beauties using traditional methods that don’t require the vast amounts of salt and sulphurs that modern short– cuts demand. Drews’ sausages are made from hand-​selected meat, ethically and (where possible) locally raised. Their quality is evident in the unbelievable flavour of our sausages — wholesome, meaty, natural.

Meet the Business Owner

Jens and Thorsten H.

Business Owner

Jens Hertha was introduced to these wondrous meats through Drews’ son and fellow Canucks fan Thorston Stock. Originally from Germany, Jens was surprised to find the authentic taste of home here in Canada. He immediately asked where he could buy them and was told that Drews’ sausages were only produced for specialty commercial locations. Undaunted, Jens went straight to the source, visiting Drews’ manufacturing facility to buy direct. As a true sausage connoisseur, Jens began to feel it was his duty to bring these culinary marvels to the masses. In August 2011, after a vacation back in the fatherland, Jens felt it was time to bring a taste of Germany to Vancouver. He and Thorsten got together and started to work on making D Original Sausage Haus a reality.
