7 apple varieties from Alsace are picked in the fall/winter, and after a natural fermentation, they are distilled twice in our copper pot stills. Our Apple eau de vie is aged for a minimum of 5 years in stainless steel tanks before bottling.

Tasting notes
Colour: crystal clear.
Nose: rustic, with aromas of cider and cooked apple.
Palate: gourmet, with pastry notes of apple pie.
Finish: soft and lingering.

Suggestion: Enjoy it as a digestif at around 13°c in a tulip glass. It will also pair well with a dessert or in a cocktail.

Distillerie Metté

Alsace, France

Eaux-de-Vie & liqueurs

Distillerie Metté

It all starts with the choice of fruits, flowers and spices. Contrary to common belief, spoiled fruits are not used in the distillery. Mette accepts only the best-quality fruits and holds to a high standard in produce. Timing is of utmost importance. Naturally sweet fruits ferment in for around 6 to 8 weeks. Other berries, flowers and spices are put to maceration in a neutral eau-de-vie made of wine and therefore three dimensional rather than flat. And ageing in stainless steel vats up to 10 years is of outmost importance. The exotic components are amazing discoveries: Acacia, Asperule (from which the first aspirin was obtained), Medlar, Greengage Plum, etc.
