    Item no.: 22227865479-1106-197279950

    A Berlin community of craft distillers gives Germany's best rye whiskeys a stage, cutting out the middleman.

    Expert description

    Freimeisterkollektiv Straight Rye Organic Whiskey is a German rye whiskey, bottled at 48.2%. Freimeisterkollektiv was established in 2016 in Berlin as a platform for craft distilleries, formed by a group of distillers and bartenders who joined forces to offer high-quality spirits without middlemen, at reasonable prices. The collective works with German and Austrian distillers, including the family-run Rüdiger Sasse distillery in Münsterland, in the family's hands for 15 generations since 1707, and the J. Haider distillery, founded in 1995 and led since 2016 by Jasmin Haider-Stadler.

About Freimeisterkollektiv

Freimeisterkollektiv is a collective of independent microdistilleries united by a shared goal of quality, transparency and craftsmanship. The distilleries that are part of this collective span many countries, from Germany and Austria to Mexico and Rwanda, giving the collective's whiskey series an unusually international range. For newcomers, Freimeisterkollektiv is an exciting shortcut to tasting through different national whiskey styles, while connoisseurs will appreciate the shared quality philosophy tying the various microdistilleries together across continents.

History & Background

Freimeisterkollektiv was established as a platform for independent, smaller distilleries seeking visibility and shared distribution without compromising their individual identity and local roots. The concept is built on a German quality philosophy that places high value on transparency about origin and production method, in contrast to many large, industrial whiskey brands. By bringing together distilleries from places as different as Rwanda and Mexico under one shared umbrella, the collective has created a unique model for how smaller producers can reach an international market.

Production & Style

The whiskies are distilled by the individual member distilleries, giving the collective's releases a varied, experimental character.
