According to Andrea Stetter, one of Slyrs' managing directors, Slyrs whisky is fundamentally different from Scotch, with "... a mild, fruity taste ...", and "... can be drunk as soon as it is three years old." The name Slyrs is derived from Slyrse, the old Bavarian name for the Schliersee and the monastery of the same name. The distillery in the district of Neuhaus was founded in 1999 by Florian Stetter, who trained as a brewer and maltster. Since whiskey has to be stored by law for three years and the production quantities are comparatively small anyway, only a limited edition of 100,000 bottles was initially sold and then distributed locally. In 2011, between 40,000 and 50,000 people visited the distillery. As of 2011, the whisky distillery was the largest in Germany. More information...
