Balsam works of Semyon Lelyukin, native of the Smolensk region. A successful trader of hemp, S Lelyukhin opened in 1789 in Kliversala a factory for processing Riga balsam in accordance with the formula of A. Kunz. The factory produced balsam until 1908. Balsam was not only supplied to internal areas but also to Western Europe. A similar strong alcoholic liquor is still produced in Riga.
