Welcome to the Schweiger distillery in Kelheim! On our stills we produce fine and noble distillates from fruit, fruit and herb spirits, as well as intensely flavored liqueurs. Of course, you can look over our shoulders and get lots of information about the distillation of fruit and herbs.
The bestsellers include classics such as the Williams pear brandy or the "Alte Williamsbirne" variety with its seductive amber color, which it acquires through ageing in barrique barrels. A particular specialty of the house is the Donauwellengeist, a berry mixture with rowanberries, raspberries and blueberries. During the maturing period, the barrels are stored on board the "MS Renate" and sail with the excursionists through the Danube gorge to Weltenburg Abbey and back to Kelheim. If you want to know what it tastes like, the best place to visit is the Schweiger distillery store. A small Tasting of the products can certainly be obtained from the good-humored burner.
Another real discovery is the Gin from the Schweiger distillery. Distiller Christian Schweiger has created three varieties for beginners and gin connoisseurs, for long drinks or cocktails. If you can't decide or are looking for a gift for a gin lover, simply take all three in the tasting size. The Schweiger distillery also offers this practical small version with its Brandies, spirits and liqueurs on. Incidentally, the latter also seduce with a wide variety of flavors. From local specialties such as Beer liqueur or the hunting liqueur made according to an old Benedictine recipe, the range extends to the exotic macadamia liqueur. Regular customers also particularly appreciate the Coffee liqueur. It contains no additives such as spices or cream and owes its intense flavor to the coffees from the Schweigers' own roastery.
Of course, the first-class home-roasted coffees are not only available as liqueurs. Coffee connoisseurs can also buy filter coffee and espresso directly. Strong and full-bodied, low-acid or even decaffeinated - there is something for everyone. Customers also receive expert advice and accessories such as hand filters and coffee pots. They can also experience how the specialties are made in the show roastery.
Whether Coffee or Gin, Brandy or Liqueur - a Gift for connoisseurs is quickly found at the Schweiger distillery and coffee roastery. Stylish bottles with a modern design and gift boxes ensure that the specialties are also a visual delight.
