ÖselBirch

ÖselBirch is a family-run company that produces refreshing drinks from birch water.

The foundation was inspired by our beloved grandma. Every spring, when the snow began to melt, she would cut the trees and collect the nutritious and delicious birch sap. During the summer vacations, when we were off school and the days were long, we used to visit Grandma on Saaremaa (aka. Ösel), the largest island in Estonia. The birch water, which was fermented until then, was the best refreshment on hot days in the meadows.

We are three sisters and an older brother who balances our crazy ideas: Katri, Anne-Liis, Mirjam and Ardon. As life goes, we now live in different countries: While our brother, Ardon, and eldest sister, Katri, live in Estonia, the two younger sisters, Anne-Liis & Mirjam, have gone out to conquer the world and study abroad. Today we live in Cologne, Germany and Cardiff, Wales respectively.

Although we live far away, our hearts are close and form a great team that works great together.
