Prinz Alter Bodensee Apfel

Prinz Old Lake Constance Apple is produced by the Prinz distillery in H�rbranz. It is made by distilling apples of different varieties grown in the orchards surrounding Lake Constance. The region's ideal temperature conditions ensure that the fruit reaches an optimal sugar-acid ratio, resulting in a remarkably rich and characteristic flavor. The Lake Constance apples are harvested at the end of summer and immediately processed into mash on the farm. Then, they go through a double distillation process using vacuum distillation. The resulting apple distillate is aged for several years in stoneware before being transferred to the customized Prinz wooden barrel, where it undergoes further maturation for several months and develops its distinctive woody aromas and unmatched smoothness. Finally, natural fruit extracts are added to provide a touch of sweetness.
