Sambuca Biostilla Walcher Organic

Alfons Walcher Estate Distillery

Aroma-preserving methods are used throughout production at the estate distillery of Alfons Walcher in South Tyrol. The highest standards are also applied to the raw materials, not only because of the water-bath pot-still distillation process. Anything that could impair the flavour is rejected.

The spirits should remain as natural and full of flavour as they are: a marriage of old distilling traditions and environmentally friendly innovation. In 1966, Alfons Walcher began with a farm distillery at Turmbachhof. This farm in Eppan has belonged to the family for nine generations. Half a century ago, Alfons Walcher thus laid the foundations there for the commercial production of grappa, fruit spirits, herbal schnapps and fine liqueurs.

Today, Alfons Walcher's sons Theodor and Matthias are guiding the fine spirits distillery towards an environmentally responsible future. Its products are sold successfully on five continents.

Its location in a distinctive microclimate makes exceptional flavour possible. In South Tyrol's largest continuous fruit-growing area, with over 280 days of sunshine a year and relatively cool nights, particularly intensely flavoured fruit thrives. These conditions allow the selection of only fully ripe, healthy fruit, sourced locally wherever possible, as the basis for schnapps, liqueurs, grappa and fine spirits. The family focuses above all on organically grown raw materials and gentle processing without any additives. Walcher's organic fine spirits and ‘Biostilla’ organic liqueurs depend on the quality of their ingredients. Certified organic raw materials produce the finest, most expressive flavours.
