I find unusual spirits interesting, and I want to hear about the ones you have.

    From what I read here, raspberries don’t have enough sugar to be distilled by themselves. I didn’t realize it but apparently the himbeergeist is an infusion.

      The way I read it, they add water to crushed raspberries and let it ferment, they then distilled that, and later let it “ripen” for 10 years.

      They only made 600 bottles, and I bought three of them…
