This bottling of a 3-year-old Franconian single malt, named Old Owl, was produced by Kauzen Bräu in Ochsenfurt. The whisky was distilled in 2012, matured in ex-red wine casks, and bottled at cask strength in 2015 in a run of 60 bottles.
As of 2017, there are already more than 150 distilleries in Germany producing German whisky. Most distilleries produce clear brandies and use whisky production as a niche and side business. Whisky output is at a very low level of sometimes only a few thousand bottles a year depending on the distillery.
