Nestled amongst orchards and vineyards lies the historic distillery at the Hödl Hof, where fine spirits have been produced for generations in the traditional Styrian style. The quality of the spirits is guaranteed by the use of a 300-litre rough distillation still and a 200-litre fine distillation still, both made of pure copper. The estate’s own fruit is transported directly from the orchards to the fermentation cellars, where it is gently fermented under temperature-controlled conditions. Following the double distillation process, which reflects the essence of the traditional Styrian art of distilling, only the high-proof ‘heart’ of the spirit is extracted. This is then matured in wood, glass or stainless steel to perfect its character.

Williams schnapps is regarded as a timeless classic amongst fruit brandies and delights with its fresh and distinctive aroma. Over 15,000 Williams pear trees thrive at the Hödl Hof, their fruit cultivated with the utmost care. The Williams pears used for this fine schnapps come from the Hödl Hof’s own orchards as well as from selected fruit growers in the region.

A true classic that perfectly embodies the Styrian distilling tradition.
