Michlers Orange Gin 0,7L 44%

Austrian Empire Navy Rum Reserva 1863, 0.7L 40% History and production of Austrian Empire Navy Rum Reserva 1863 Barbados is considered the cradle of rum. The tropical climate and fertile soil make the Caribbean island ideal for growing sugar cane. The actual sugar production also produces molasses, a thick, brown mass that still contains a lot of sugar and is the basic ingredient for rum distillation. English merchants discovered early on that, in addition to sugar cane cultivation, rum production in Barbados is a real gold mine and so many smaller distilleries were built on the island. The distillation of molasses rum is still firmly anchored in Barbados and fills Barbadians with great pride. The rums are mainly distilled in small pot stills and have a strong taste, with notes of molasses and caramel predominating. The name Austrian Empire Navy Rum Reserva 1863 0.7L 40% goes back to the Albert Michler liqueur, rum and spirit factory, which was founded in 1863 in Buchsdorf, Austria-Silesia. In addition to the world-famous Buchsdorfer Magenbitter, numerous overseas rums were also imported and sold. However, with the end of the Second World War, the spirits factory had to be closed.

Michlers Genuine Gin 0.7L 44% Classic style The Albert Michler distillery is mainly known for its expressive rums, but it is probably in every British distillery's blood to devote itself to the country's most famous spirit, gin. In the spirit of founder Albert Michler, the decision was made to distill a unique gin for people looking for new taste experiences. To develop it, the distillery joined forces with German master distiller Frank Braun, and production was also relocated to Germany, making it in the immediate vicinity of Michler's birthplace. In the 19th century, Michler lived and worked in Silesia, which at the time was partly part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire and is now Poland. Lots of juniper The distillation of this spirit is quite unique, as it is divided into seven steps and a total of three distillation units, which are responsible for the distinctive taste. For the maceration, the heart of gin production, up to 15 spices and herbs are used, which are largely secret. Nevertheless, some are well known, such as the classic juniper, but then it quickly becomes exotic, as the other ingredients include apple peel, wormwood, rosemary, thyme, citrus fruits and a fruit similar to the currant. All botanicals are placed in the clear raw spirit so that the alcohol bursts the cell walls of the plants and they release their essential oils and aromas. This is how the alcohol is flavored and the gin is created. As more juniper is added during production than in other gins, the distillate tends to be slightly cloudy because there are more essential oils in the spirit, but this has no effect on the taste. Many nuances A variety of different aromas can be detected on the tongue, the main component being juniper. However, it is surrounded by nuances of spices and flowers reminiscent of forest and nature, which are rounded off by fruity, exotic aromas. This results in an overall very soft and round taste.

Michler's Green Gin 0.7L 44%

Michler's Absinth Bohemicum 0.7L 70% Drink of the artists Absinthe is a mysterious spirit that is surrounded by many myths, as the distillate is said to have hallucinogenic effects and indescribable states of intoxication. Like many drinks, absinthe was initially drunk as a medicine, developed by a French doctor in Switzerland in the 18th century. However, as the medicine tasted wonderful and was soon preferred as a luxury item, word got around about absinthe and began its crusade to the big European cities like Paris and London. There, the bourgeoisie and artists met in the evening for the ritual drinking of the "green fairy", because when absinthe was mixed with a little water, it turned milky green. Towards the end of the 19th century, a real epidemic broke out; people loved the feeling of intoxication, which was caused not only by the alcohol but also by the neurotoxin thujone contained in wormwood. Miraculous herb The main ingredient in absinthe is wormwood, which is harvested when it has the highest content of the aromatic essential oils. In addition to wormwood, the master distillers at the Albert Michler distillery also use mugwort to soften the strong taste of the wormwood. The raw materials come from the distillery's old homeland, Silesia, today's Poland. Once the two plants have been dried, they are macerated in high-proof alcohol, which causes the herb cells to burst and release their aromas into the alcohol. Maceration is a very effective extraction method for extracting aromas from ingredients that cannot be juiced. The now flavored raw spirit is distilled in traditional stills, which further refines the taste. Natural aroma As the Michler distillery completely avoids additives, its absinthe has a light, natural green coloring from wormwood and mugwort. The distillate offers a wide variety of flavors, with intense herbal notes that are due to the high content of essential oils in the raw materials. Bitter, sweet, spicy and fresh notes harmonize with an intense wormwood aroma on the tongue.
