Finalmente, die dritte Siciliana! Nach Blutorange und Bergamotte holt uns Giancarlo jetzt die Zitruskönigin vom Baum. Äußerlich derb anmutend, sind die Aromen der großen “Cedra” wahrhaft königlich. Einzeln von Hand abgeschält, wandert...

The Verbena for this special spirit literally grows in our neighbour’s garden. Even while picking the leaves, we are enveloped by the citrusy spicy scent. The freshly picked leaves are directly macerated and distilled off. The Verbena...

Those delicious apricots we get straight form one of the most passionate fruit farmers I know. Varieties such as the sweet and juicy Orangered and Bergeron are already chilled and pitted when they reach the distillery. Here they are...

This fruit is relatively low-yielding and laborious to process, but worth every bit of effort! In many ways, the quince is our most interesting fruit. Our deliciously bitter Prima Donnas come from our own orchards and from farmers in...

The first contact with this spirit can be a little bit unusual for many. It’s the absolute concentration of the popular crooked cucumber from Reichenau Island in Lake Constance: crisp, refreshing and strong, just like a bite into a juicy...

Rural and exoctic, this lumpy relative of the turnip is a deeply polarising vegetable indeed: we are talking about the red beetroot. Some love it, others, well... perhaps we can convert them with the help of this distillate. The young...

We get our hand-picked young spruce shoots for this spirit in early summer from a place called Bad Peterstal in the Black Forest. Freshly picked, they are only soaked in alcohol for a short time and then immediately distilled. The result...

Florian Faudes owes the creation of this spirit to Giancarlo, a fellow fruit farmer in Sicily. Apart from exceptional tangerines, Giancarlo also grows organic blood oranges of the variety Tarocco di Catania: The perfect fruit for this...

Spring in bottles. A tart liqueur, obtained from a regionally- sourced old variety of rhubarb called “Holsteiner Blut” (Holstein’s blood) – unfiltered. It captivates with its rose-red colour, a pleasantly refreshing tingling sensation on...

Every year, the distilling season at Faude feine Brände begins with cherries. And what a start it is! For this particular distillation we only use the varieties “Dollenseppler” or “Schwarze Königin”. They ripen on tall trees in the...

To Florian Faude, our plum is a classic that cannot be given enough attention! Fresh and fruity, with a full body, notes of cinnamon, and smooth stone flavours. For our “Zwetschge”, we are happy to put in a little more time, as we only...

The small wild plum variety named Zibarte – affectionately called “Zibärtle” by the locals – has been growing in Baden since the Neolithic Age and was also mentioned by the medieval scholar Hildegard von Bingen. We source our little...

We raise our glass to this old, native plum variety. Intensely fragrant, golden yellow and round, it is aptly named “Haferpflaume” – oat plum – in German. The jury is still out on whether its name is due to its special colour or its...
