More information about Alrich liqueurs
An aromatic, full-bodied and sweet strong bitter (therefore milder in effect) that tastes of cinnamon, cloves and various roots. Used successfully in earlier times to treat stomach complaints.
Notes on the EU definition law:
It should be noted that the production site of Stargard Bitter Drops is not in Stargard, but in Brüssow.
The well-known original recipe is used.
Stargard Bitter Drops are a stomach liqueur produced in the traditional way using the maceration process.
The characteristics of Stargarder Bitter Drops do not correspond to a specific geographical area, but to a specific ethnic group, although the name of the drink refers to a region. The combination of various medicinal and bitter herbs is characteristic of this drink.
In Germany, a herbal liqueur culture developed over centuries, which had its origins in the search for medicines. Some of the raw materials used came from Asia and Africa, so there was no need for a preferred geographical area in which the drink could be produced. Due to the fact that the various producers were located throughout Germany and their distribution, the name Stargarder Bittere Tropfen was already regarded as a generic name in the 1920s and is therefore not worthy of protection on a regional basis.

In the northeasternmost corner of Brandenburg in the beautiful Uckermark region lies Brüssow - a small town halfway between Prenzlau and Stettin. And in this Brüssow lie the roots of Alrich Historic Liqueurs, our distillery and liqueur manufactory. Founded as a liqueur factory in 1903 and forcibly closed in 1952, we revived the company in 2014. In our salesroom in a historical ambience you can transport yourself to another time. Through a large panoramic window you can look into the production room with copper distillery and large herb press. Herbal liqueurs are our passion. Since we...
