Our next stop is St. Kilian Distillers, Germany's largest whisky distillery. Rüdenau is still in Bavaria, but it's no longer really in the Spessart. We don't want to be too fussy, so we make the detour to Rüdenau and find the place, which is inspired by Scottish traditions. The distillery was founded in 2016 and launched its first whisky in 2019. It combines pure barley malt, copper stills and German engineering expertise to produce internationally celebrated whiskies.

00:30Germany's largest whisky distillery is our destination.
00:38The village of Rudinau is still in Bavaria, but it's not really in the Spessart anymore.
00:43We don't want to be petty, so we make a detour to Rudinau and find the place that is inspired by Scottish traditions.
00:50At St. Kilian Distillers, we produce single malt whiskeys using traditional Scottish equipment
00:57and combine this with German high-tech brewing engineering to produce premium liqueurs and premium whiskey here in Rudinau.
01:05We gain some interesting insights into whiskey production.
01:16St. Kilian Distillers even offers a dry gin.
01:19We ferment the beer in our wooden fermentation vats to 8% ABV, so we're basically a brewery here.
01:31And the 8% beer then goes straight into distillation, where we distill it twice, as is customary in Scotland.
01:39And then we have our spirit, which is stored in barrels.
01:46St. Kilian Distillers offers a diverse selection of whiskeys.
01:50Take, for example, the single malt whiskey.
01:53This is made from pure barley malt and is inspired by Scottish tradition.
01:58It includes varieties such as the mild and fruity Classic and the rich and smoky Peated.
02:06Blended malt whiskey is a combination of single malts from different distilleries.
02:12At St. Kilian Distillers, we find two main flavors of blended whiskeys.
02:17Bud Spencer and Terrence Hill, which consist of a mixture of single malt and grain whiskey.
02:23Those who love exclusivity can also purchase limited editions and special editions here,
02:30which score points with their unique aromas and sophisticated maturation processes.
