Products & tasting notes

Representative of the styles this house makes; specific bottlings and vintages vary.

Pear eau-de-vie
Wasser
Ripe, floral Williams pear — juicy and perfumed — with a clean, faintly peppery finish.
About Pear →
Apple eau-de-vie
Wasser
Baked apple and orchard fruit over a warming, spirituous core; vanilla, dried fruit and oak spice emerge with age.
About Apple →
Raspberry Geist
Geist
Vivid fresh raspberry leaping from the glass; dry on the palate, intensely aromatic and pure. Macerated as a Geist, so the emphasis is on pure, high-toned aroma.
