The merchant and distiller Hugo Asbach founded the company Asbach & Co. on May 11, 1892 in Rüdesheim on the romantic Rhine. A legend is born when the then 24-year-old starts up with only two stills. This laid the foundation for the unique history of Asbach. After repeated distillation, it matures four to five times longer than required by law, first in barrels of Limousin oak, later in barrels of German oak. Its rounded taste and the harmonious bouquet make Asbach Uralt the epitome of the highest quality and highest enjoyment. Aroma of honey and a hint of grapes, dominating flowers and a touch of wood. On the palate mild sweetness, harmonious bouquet of plums and nuts. Pleasant with subtle almonds in the finish.
