In 1909, the Parliament of the Grand-Duchy of Baden entrusted the Chamber of Agriculture with the creation of an instructional and experimental distillery in Oppenau. Its purpose was to produce a pure and genuine cherry brandy (Kirschwasser) and to sell and make it famous all over the world.
At this time, the Chamber designed the celebrated square bottle which to this day is considered typical and is used as the trade mark of genuine Black Forest fruit brandies.
In 1923, Kammer-Kirsch was founded as a joint-stock company and was transformed into a limited liability company in 1961. Place of business was Oppenau, with a branch office in Karlsruhe. The experts responsible for the permanent control and improvement of the distillates succeeded in creating the quality label “Kammer-Kirsch”.
Continuous refinement remains the golden rule of Kammer-Kirsch. Since its foundation, Kammer-Kirsch has had but one objective: the production of genuine and exquisite noble fruit brandies. As superior quality requires, the only way to distill a brandy of the highest natural purity is to use selected and fully ripe fruit.
Kammer-Kirsch´s extraordinary quality is achieved through a careful double distillation. The distilling experts of Kammer-Kirsch perform their high art throughout the various steps of production. From the fruit to the brandy, they use exclusively the finest and tastiest substances.
A long maturation in glazed earthenware jugs, ashen and oakwood casks at the constant temperature of deep vaulted cellars then gives the fruit brandies their exquisite taste and inimitable fruity bouquet.
The slogan of the company´s foundation time is still valid today: “Kenner kaufen Kammer!” (connaisseurs buy Kammer-Kirsch). Kammer-Kirsch remains the traditional house of noble fruit brandies and spirits.
