Farm distillery St. Urban | Cornaiano
Do you know the difference between fruit brandy, spirit, grappa and liqueur? Have you ever tasted South Tyrolean gin?
The Hofbrennerei St. Urban stands for the art of distillation at the highest level. The distilling is done by Erwin himself.
For the distillates he uses only fully ripe and undamaged fruit from our own cultivation. This is the only way to produce noble brandies of exceptional quality. Through months of storage, the noble brandies receive the optimal fullness of aroma and harmony. St. Urban products can consciously be described as the “heart of nature” because they are produced without any flavourings or added sugar.
