  • It is the sixth smallest nation in Europe, having an area of 468 km2 (181 sq mi) and an estimated population of 85,000 in 2012.

    I can only guess it's not worth it to start a distillery there. Good luck for your search, and please report back if you find one! ;)

  • you had better bring back enough for the whole class!

  • Reading the fine print on the label it actually states "Distilled and bottled by Lohmann Spirituosen Berlin"

  • see? no distilleries in andorra ;)

  • But we nevertheless ship there, so if you find someone interested in starting the very first distillery in Andorra you can point em in our direction. ;)

    Mainly anise and other liquers, very good though, they had a bunch of brandys and whiskeys aging, didnt try any. Sign says it was opened in 1956. Looks like all iberian copper styled stills. Maybe 6 x 500 liter stills, I couldnt get much out of the distiller, he only spoke spanish or catalan, which doesnt work for me, most of my conversations around here start with "soy gringo." There was a mercantile next door that sold small stills.
