Flavour wheel
Fruity, sweet, dry or herby – the flavour wheel characterises every SLYRS whisky and SLYRS whisky liqueur according to its own dominant flavours.
It is used for classification and comparison before and after a tasting and aids in the search for your personal favourite SLYRS product.
SLYRS - Finishings
It is no longer a secret that SLYRS makes many unique treasures. For some time, our product range has also included limited edition, premium single malts that are finished in second-hand casks of various origins. New destinations are added every year. During the ageing period, these casks’ fine aromas enter the whisky and give it its special, characteristic and aromatic flavour.
Unique casks for unique finishes

Individual – confident – unique. The Bavarian single malt whiskies of our Prestige series are true one-offs.
SLYRS Single Cask –
Edition in Cask Strength
Are you looking for pure, undiluted whisky indulgence? Then SLYRS Single Cask Edition in Cask Strength is just what you need. The strictly limited distillate from a single cask is bottled directly from the cask, so the original cask strength is preserved.
SLYRS - Mountain Edition
Mountains on the doorstep gave us an idea: SLYRS whisky that breathes the mountain air of the Upper Bavarian Alps, where it ages to perfection. In 2014, we put this scheme into practice. We used the ski lift to carry around 50 specially selected whisky casks up 1,501 metres to the unique SLYRS mountain storehouse at the top of Mount Stümpfling. There, SLYRS Mountain Edition aged 5 years to perfection.

SLYRS – Sild Crannog
Single Malt Whisky
There are 834 kilometres between Schliersee in Upper Bavaria and the island of Sylt in the North Sea. Guess what connects the two places: genuine passion for whisky. Our Sild Crannog whisky from the Sild distillery is one of the world’s few single malt whiskies that are stored on board a cutter. “The Angel’s Share” is anchored in List, the most north-easterly port in Germany. This unusual project was brought into being by master distiller Hans Kemenater, SLYRS founding shareholder Anton Stetter and Alexander Sievers from the Heiliger wine shop on Sylt.
On the cutter “The Angel’s Share”, the strictly limited Sild Crannog Single Malt Whisky is aged in small wooden casks. The movements of the sea and rough North Sea climate create a complex, powerful and mildly peaty and salty malt taste. The authentic Sylt flair is amplified by the malting barley and spring water from the island.

SLYRS - Liqueur
Our whisky liqueurs complement the clan of multifaceted SLYRS whisky editions. We make them by reducing the alcohol content of the SLYRS Whisky Classic with crystal-clear water from the nearby forest spring and refining the whisky distillate with vanilla, honey, select alpine herbs or fresh cream and Swiss chocolate, depending on the type of liqueur desired.
