Description
We are a family business in bavaria wich was founded in 1992. We do our carefully selected delicacies, liqueurs and spirits with a lot of passion and love.
The products are only made in a small quantity and by hand.
For our delicacies over 2500 rosebushes must be picked up from june to september. In spring the bushes have to be cutted back. We’ve got some apple and peartrees for our distillery as well. In the end of the year we also have to supply the famous bavarian christmas markets with our products.
So you can guess, a lot of work to do but it is always fun and never gets boring.
Youre work for our small company is to trim the bushes in march and picking up roses, apples and pears from june to september.
We are looking forward seeing you and would be happy to welcome you in our lovely home.
You are free to take care of your own food or to eat with us.

Unfortunately, we do not have the time to write several emails every day.
