Gölles - Schnapps Distillery and Vinegar Production
Quint-essential ...
Direct, robust, earthy – this describes the character of the Styrian people, and it is also a good description of the distillates and vinegars of the Gölles family. The best sun-ripened fruits and excellent wines are the basis for producing dense and robust distillates and delicately fruity vinegars. Modern technology plays an important role in the production processes, but what is ultimately decisive is the wealth of experience and skill of Alois Gölles and his team.
Products: Fine distillates and vinegars
Vulcano - Meat Products Producer
Vulcano – from the field to the table – everything homemade from a single source.
Our products are as gently seasoned as the rolling East Styrian hills. Our hams are cured from 8 to 27 months until their exceptional aroma is achieved. Connoisseurs and gourmets appreciate the typical "Vulcano" taste, which was honoured as the Austrian national champion in 2008 with the highly-acclaimed "Steirischen Lucullus" culinary prize for typical regional specialities.
Only selected pigs on the farms of the three "Volcano" farmers are fed a special diet for ham production.
Products: "Vulcano" ham
