You don’t see a lot of rowanberry spirits—and certainly not in 1.5L magnums. But Hans Reisetbauer isn’t your average distiller. He’s one of Austria’s true eau de vie masters, turning rare fruit into pure, expressive spirits with near-obsessive precision.

Rowanberries (aka mountain ash) are tiny, bitter, and a pain to work with. But distilled by Reisetbauer, they become something wild and compelling: alpine herbs, citrus zest, tart red fruit, and a slight nuttiness, all delivered in a bone-dry, crystal-clear frame. No sugar, no aging—just the essence of the fruit, fermented and slowly distilled with laser focus.

The magnum format is a total unicorn—perfect for collectors, spirits geeks, or anyone looking to pour something no one else at the table has tried. Serve chilled after a meal or alongside Alpine cheeses and charcuterie for a next-level pairing.

More about Hans Reisetbauer

The undisputed master of eau-de-vie since 1994. Hans planted orchards on his Austrian farm with one crazy goal: make the world's best fruit spirits. He won Schnapps of the Year in less than two years, then expanded to gin, vodka, and whiskey from his own organic grain. His distillery is energy-independent and made with the finest stills money can buy.
