The Grassl Distillery, the oldest gentian distillery in Germany, produces a top-quality pear brandy that is highly aromatic and designed to please even the most discerning connoisseur. With a rich history dating back to the 17th century, Grassl Distillery has the exclusive right to extract gentian roots, which are protected. By employing traditional distilling methods and adhering to strict guidelines, the distillery creates a range of unique mountain specialties, each with its own distinct flavor profile. The process of transforming the gentian roots from the Berchtesgaden Mountains into the renowned Grassl Mountain Gentian Schnapps is labor-intensive, requiring considerable effort, time, and patience. The spirits mature in carefully selected ash wood barrels, adding depth and complexity to the final product.
