This bottling of a Black Forest single malt was produced by the Rothaus state brewery, with the whisky itself being distilled at the Kammer-Kirsch distillery in 2013. The whisky matured for 2 years in ex-bourbon barrels, received a finish in Lemberger oak barrels and was bottled at cask strength in 2016.
The Badische Staatsbrauerei Rothaus AG is a brewery based in Rothaus, Grafenhausen, not far from Lake Schluchsee. Since 2009, single malt has also been produced in small copper stills in cooperation with the Kammer-Kirsch distillery.
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.
