Etter Kirsch - Not all kirsch is the same

Not all kirsch is the same. The 350 different types in Switzerland alone, plus sophisticated distilling processes, make for an impressive diversity of flavours. We have been passionate about kirsch since 1870. Our sweet kirsch cherries come exclusively from the best locations around Lake Zug, in the heart of Switzerland. Five totally different kirsch spirits are distilled in the house of Etter.
