Freihof Destillerie is located in the village of Lustenau, Austria where it was discovered that this Rhine-valley and the environs of Lake Constance offered supreme climatic conditions for horticulture. With over 40,000 fruit-trees, it was only natural that this bounty of nature should have been turned into cider and distillates. It was in 1885 that the grand-father of the present owner added a cider making and distilling facility to his country inn “Zum Freihof”, and from this humble origin Freihof Distillery received it’s name and direction.
