Nun's Whisky Series
Produced and distilled in November 2017, this excellent amber whisky matured in red and sweet wine casks in the cellars of the Klösterli.

The whisky offers a fine variety of aromas. In the nose, it captivates with noble wood aromas, which are underlined with fine almond and marzipan notes. In the mouth, it is velvety soft, rounded off with beautiful honey notes in the finish.

Production

Our Nun's Whisky is made in the heart of Bern in the brewery of our restaurant Altes Tramdepot. As soon as the mash is ready, we take it to the Schwab distillery, which distils the whisky for us.

The whisky is then stored for five years in red and sweet wine casks in the cellar of the Klösterlistutz.

Matthias Koschahre, the brewery manager, personally handles the finishing and bottling.

Each of our whiskies is numbered by hand. There are only 505 bottles of Nun's Whisky Sister Abigail. 24 bottles were additionally bottled at cask strength.

Stored where the nuns once changed for the Aare baths

The whisky got its name because it is stored in the cellar of the Klösterlistutz. The barrels in which the whisky matures are located in vaulted cellars where the nuns of the Klösterlis once changed for the Aare bath.

Each whisky in the Nun's Whisky Series bears the name of a fictitious nun who lived in the Klösterli long ago.

So perhaps it is not only the optimal humidity that makes our whiskies so unique, but also the spirits of the namesakes who lived in the Klösterli hundreds of years ago.
