Slyrs Whisky History
The origin of Slyrs
The history of Slyrs begins in 1999, when Florian Stetter founded the first Upper Bavarian whisky distillery in Schliersee. The name "Slyrs" is derived from a monk's settlement from the year 779, which was founded in what is now Schliersee. Since then, Slyrs has developed from a small distillery into an internationally recognized company that stands for quality and innovation in whisky production. The Slyrs brand stands for Bavarian craftsmanship, tradition and the highest quality standards.
