Brandy tasting KRENAC distillery

Tour of our small distillery including tasting in the distillery cellar and in the tasting hut.

The Krenn family distillery has been refining apples, Christ Williams pears, peaches and grapes into fine KRENAC brandies in barrels or as clear brandies since 1998. The fruit is distilled according to the rules of the French Cognac and Calvados distilleries. Storage takes place in wooden barrique barrels. Only selected fruit is processed into mash and fermented in stainless steel tanks. In order to preserve the strong fruit aromas, the mash is distilled immediately after fermentation using the classic double distillation process. Particular emphasis is placed on separating the first and last run in order to extract the heart of the spirit, the middle run. The middle run is stored in Vulkanland wooden barrels (225 liters) made of cherry, oak or chestnut. Fruit liqueurs and liqueurs made from barrel-aged brandies are also produced, such as barrel-aged coffee, vanilla and orange liqueurs.
