Tanagra - European style Eau de Vie, Grappa now in South Africa
Distillery
We are in the process of establishing a boutique distillery at Tanagra which produces a small range of Grappa and Eau de Vie. When relocating from Germany in March 2009 we brought a German 200 litre still with us, a combined pot still (copper) and column still (stainless steel). This combination allows to distill in one process resulting in a purer yield.
The still was inaugurated by the German master distiller, Hubertus Vallendar in the first week of December 2009.
