Rhöner Whisky

Anton Bischof began making the Rhöner Whisky in the mid-1990s, for his wife Anna, who simply did not care for Scotch — and it has stayed Franconian through and through: down to earth, honest, unmistakable. The grain and the water come from Wartmannsroth, the wood from the Rhön and the Spessart. It is a single grain whisky distilled from the family’s own wheat and malt, finely and aromatically, and matured for five years only in new 100-litre casks of Rhön oak from the cooperage Büttnerei Aßmann, 20 km away. The Rhön oak gives it a fine vanilla tone and notes of honey. Dry, with 0.0 g of sugar and no added flavourings. Best enjoyed at 16-19 °C. 0.2 or 0.5 l, 40 % vol.
