Hugel Destillate
From the cobbled lanes of Riquewihr in Alsace, Hugel Destillate carries France’s eau-de-vie tradition far beyond wine—a line that can be traced from Alsace to the Charentes, always with the same insistence on clarity. These are dry spirits, built on pure fruit and marc rather than sweetness.
Fully ripe raw material is fermented, then distilled gently in copper with a rigorous separation of heads and tails. Mirabelle, Williams pear and raspberry translate orchard precision; Marc de Gewürztraminer d’Alsace adds another voice, a grape-marc spirit that turns varietal intensity into structure and tension.
After distillation, patience matters: resting to harmonise, careful reduction and a deliberately neutral élevage that keeps the core intact. The signature is unmistakably French—pure, elegant and sharply defined, the kind of premium schnapps that feels confident without noise.Hugel Destillate
