If you are looking for a first-class single malt whiskey, you do not have to travel far. Because in addition to the Scottish homeland and the new world of Asia, Germany has meanwhile also made a name for itself in whiskey art. Probably the best-known among German whiskeys is the Slyrs from a distillery on the Bavarian Schliersee. It has been produced since 1999, with the classic being allowed to store for three years in a new American white oak barrel. This gives it a pleasantly mild aroma with a beautiful wood and malt character. There are also very nice fruity flavors.

For the Slyrs, the makers set the highest quality criteria. Only the best Bavarian barley and fresh spring water may be used for its production. The entire production process then proceeds as one is used to from Scottish distilleries. There, in Scotland, the idea for the Slyrs also had its origin.

On a study trip, the founder of the distillery felt reminded of his Bavarian homeland. He made a bet with a fellow traveler that he could also produce a single malt whiskey of high quality in Bavaria. The idea for Slyrs was born. Of course, the winner has won the bet. Today, Slyrs whiskey has made a name for itself among connoisseurs. The assortment has grown continuously and today includes various variants developed in different barrels as well as a twelve-year version of the whiskey.

However, the three-year whiskey is still the classic from the house. So if you want to trace the beginnings and enjoy a piece of real German whiskey art, you can do so with this bottling of Bavarian Single Malt Whiskey.
