What it is
The orchard schnaps: Austria's fruit brandies (Marillenschnaps apricot from the Wachau, Williams pear, gentian and pine in the mountains) — small farm stills turning Alpine fruit into crystal eau-de-vie. Origins: farm distilling rights (Hausbrand) are centuries old in Tyrol and Salzburg; the Wachau's apricots are the aristocrats. Made from: fully ripe fruit, fermented and double pot-distilled, nothing added. How it's made: 1) Ferment the fruit mash. 2) Distil twice; cut the heart. 3) Rest in glass or steel (oak is rare — purity is the style). Served: in small tulip glasses after meals, at room temperature. Flavor: the fruit itself, intensified; apricot leads. Strength: 37.5-45%. Culture: the Brennerei (still house) is an Alpine farm's pride; schnaps after the mountain meal is law. See also: Grüner Veltliner, Stroh.
