Every Bottle Has a Story
When I visited Broger Distillery in September 2022, in Klaus, Austria, we immediately connected and I knew it would be the distillery to start Catador Itinerante’s collection. In charge of a family and craft distillery with a very limited annual production of just 1000 liters, the Brogers know what they are doing. They do not rush to bottle as long as their whiskeys continue to mature deliciously, they use only one Carl copper still for double distillation, they do not have washbacks, and the barrels that have held their whiskeys are repurposed into handcrafted furniture instead of being reused to mature new whiskies. An overly professional and well-kept hobby, the art of making whisky for them is passionate, fun and an excuse for the family to be together. Their whiskies carry not only methods learned from previous generations of distillers, but also layers of flavors that only they can achieve.
