Slyrs Bavarian Malt Whisky Distillery
Considering Germany isn't necessarily a country we naturally think of when we think of Single Malt whisky, it may be surprising to know Slyrs have been producing malt whisky since 1999. In fact there are currently more than 300 distilleries in Germany producing whisky, however most of these are Schnapps producers, making small amounts of whisky on the side. For Slyrs though, Whisky is the passion and focus, which has seen them grow to be the number one selling German single malt whisky brand, exporting to over 25 countries.
At Slyrs Distillery, the focus is on precision and producing an ultra crisp and clean style of new-make, ensuring the spirit that goes into the cask for maturation is of the highest quality. This desire to produce only exceptional quality also has motivated the decision to not chill-filter or add colours to the whiskies.
100% of the barley used by Slyrs Distillery is grown within the local Bavarian region, with the use of crystal clear glacial waters from the nearby Alps.
The passion at Slyrs was rewarded in 2015 when they were awarded the Best European Single Malt Whisky Trophy at the World Whisky Awards, and certainly many more awards since!
