The autumn sun shines on the renovated half-timbering and exposed sandstone and casts a warm light on the wooden doors and flowerpots. Firewood is stacked in the former stable and a magnificent tree provides shade in the centre of the courtyard. It is a sweet chestnut, Keschde in local dialect. Farm dog Lilly jumps around excitedly, always looking for the next petting session.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/WO-SONST-odw-feine-41-1.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/WO-SONST-odw-feine-41-1-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-43794\"\/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Farm dog Lilly is always around.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A forest and meadows behind the farm provide a backdrop in shades of green, in front of which two cows graze with their calves\u2014the farm\u2019s summer guests. Then there are Ecco, the family\u2019s aged horse, and the former circus ponies Maxi and Moritz. Johannes and Monica live in the main house. The former pigsty has become the sales and tasting room. The still is located in the former silage storage room. A good 1,000 to 1,300 litres of liqueur and 600 litres of schnapps are produced here every year as well as some 2,000 to 2,500 jars of fruit spread\u2014all of it made by themselves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The couple bought the farm in 2007 when Johannes was still working as a programmer in a publishing house and Monica in the administration of a residential home for people with disabilities. \u201cThe publishing house wasn\u2019t doing so well,\u201d says Johannes. \u201cIt had been clear for a while that I should look for an alternative.\u201d And he quickly knew that this alternative would not be another office job. His dream had long been to have his own family-run distillery. His family used to have a plot of land in Lampertheim. A large number of fruit trees grew on the 400 square metre allotment. His father took the harvest to a distiller every year. \u201cI adopted his hobby and carried it on.\u201d He subsequently wanted to turn his hobby into a profession. They just needed a suitable location.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We both knew that it wasn\u2019t going to be easy. But easy is pretty dull anyway<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They searched for two years, all the way from Weinheim to the Bavarian border, until they came across this listed three-sided farm in Litzelbach. \u201cThe farm appealed to us straight away, even if it was in a catastrophic condition,\u201d says Monica. \u201cWe immediately came up with ideas about what could be built where and what it could look like.\u201d They went for it and lived on the upper floor of the main house at the beginning\u2014with single-glazed windows and a smelly oil heater. \u201cThe ground floor was completely uninhabitable.\u201d The first winter, they say, was tough, but they never had any doubts about their project. \u201cWe both knew that it wasn\u2019t going to be easy,\u201d says Johannes. \u201cBut easy is pretty dull anyway.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/WO-SONST-odw-feine-5.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/WO-SONST-odw-feine-5-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-43686\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/WO-SONST-odw-feine-5-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/WO-SONST-odw-feine-5-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/WO-SONST-odw-feine-5-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/WO-SONST-odw-feine-5.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The couple turned the run-down three-sided farm into a jewel.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They gradually renovated the entire farm, almost on their own. Johannes even took a course in clay construction. \u201cWe really wanted to preserve the character of the farm and use natural materials wherever possible,\u201d he explains. This resulted in the creation of many cosy corners. Even the sales room with its old wooden furniture looks more like a living room. Numerous bottles line the space here. They are not standard bottles, but exceptional ones from Italian and French manufacturers. The idea is to make clear even from the outside that there is something very special inside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/WO-SONST-odw-feine-24.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/WO-SONST-odw-feine-24-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-43724\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/WO-SONST-odw-feine-24-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/WO-SONST-odw-feine-24-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/WO-SONST-odw-feine-24-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/WO-SONST-odw-feine-24.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Fine products\u2014from the outside and within.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Someone else took care of the distillation process during the first few years. When Johannes was eventually given notice from his employer, they decided to go all in. This required Johannes going back to school\u2014to the agricultural college. Two years later, he was a state-certified distiller and could acquire a distilling licence. He has been experimenting ever since. With fruit varieties, ripening methods, aromas and flavours. Always on the lookout for the next treat for the taste buds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/WO-SONST-odw-feine-52.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/WO-SONST-odw-feine-52-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-43780\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/WO-SONST-odw-feine-52-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/WO-SONST-odw-feine-52-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/WO-SONST-odw-feine-52-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/WO-SONST-odw-feine-52.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The fruits for schnapps, liqueurs and fruit spreads come from a radius of 70 kilometres.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Johannes produces classics such as <em>Alte Birne<\/em> from pears and <em>Alte Zwetschge<\/em> from plums\u2014using an individual trick, of course. \u201cWe add some dried fruit as well, to create a more intense flavour.\u201d His speciality is grape brandies, \u201csingle varieties,\u201d he clarifies straight away, such as the brandies made from Riesling, Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc and Gew\u00fcrztraminer.

Sounds sophisticated, \u201cbut it was an accident,\u201d he explains. His cider accidentally froze one winter. When it slowly thawed again, it tasted much milder. So what to do with 150 litres of cider that no longer really taste like cider? \u201cDistil it, of course!\u201d Out came a mild brandy with an amazingly strong apple flavour. The liqueurs of their range rather accentuate finely combined flavours as well, instead of overwhelming the tongue with sweetness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/WO-SONST-odw-feine-46.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/WO-SONST-odw-feine-46-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-43768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/WO-SONST-odw-feine-46-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/WO-SONST-odw-feine-46-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/WO-SONST-odw-feine-46-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/WO-SONST-odw-feine-46.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Liquid fruits.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Monica is particularly proud of the clementine spirit. It is one of the most expensive products in the range. For one simple reason: \u201cIt&#8217;s a hell of a job.\u201d They processed 25 kilograms of clementines for it, peeling and filleting every single fruit by hand. \u201cIt was worth it.\u201d And there is hardly an idea too crazy for Johannes. When a baker asked him if he could make a liqueur from pretzel dumplings, he immediately accepted the challenge. \u201cHowever, this one went down the drain.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/WO-SONST-odw-feine-49.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/WO-SONST-odw-feine-49-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-43774\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/WO-SONST-odw-feine-49-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/WO-SONST-odw-feine-49-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/WO-SONST-odw-feine-49-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/WO-SONST-odw-feine-49.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Monica likes to let you guess her varieties offering up combinations of special flavours.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Monica is just as experimental and creative when cooking her fruit spreads as Johannes is at distilling. She used to travel through the Odenwald with the <em>Traktor-Theater Tromm<\/em> construction trailer and tell fairy tales to children (click <a href=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/en\/ein-theater-auf-der-tromm\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">here <\/a>for our Wo Sonst story about the theatre on Tromm mountain). She now adds her passion for old stories to her fruit spreads. These are given names such as <em>Die Geschichte vom Marillenbaum<\/em> (The story of the apricot tree) or <em>Die drei goldenen \u00c4pfel<\/em> (The three golden apples). She likes turning the glass so the label isn\u2019t visible while she lets you taste the varieties. \u201cIt\u2019s more fun that way.\u201d She combines raspberries with tonka beans, cherries with marzipan and apples with chilli. Unusual, but never random. The fruit for the spreads comes from the Odenwald, as the fruit for the brandies with just grapes being an exception\u2014from farmers and friendly families, or from initiatives such as the Streuobstwiesenretter organisation, which works toward meadow orchard preservation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/WO-SONST-odw-feine-36.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/WO-SONST-odw-feine-36-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-43748\" style=\"width:840px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/WO-SONST-odw-feine-36-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/WO-SONST-odw-feine-36-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/WO-SONST-odw-feine-36-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/wosonst.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/WO-SONST-odw-feine-36.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The old wood-fired oven probably used to serve as a water heater.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Every third Sunday in November, they celebrate distiller\u2019s day on their farm.
