Local find in Austria

One of the best parts of traveling with some friends in Austria has been to explore the local area where we are skiing. Right next to our rented house was a building that said they produced schnapps. Here is Daphne and Katarina walking across the parking lot.
Joachim and I searched out the owner and he showed us his 'schnapps keller' where he explains how he learned to brew the schnapps over the past 50 years of his career (from his grandmother). He invited the two families to learn how he maintains his own farms and orchards to ensure there are no pesticides or chemicals in the berries before he uses them in the process.
Everything seemed out of the old country until we went into the 'keller' or basement to see where he actually distills the alcohol.
He would not sell anything until someone actually tasted the vintage - here he is pouring a taste to our friend Joachim.
He actually will not ship a single bottle unless he knows the people so he is constantly having people ask to come to his village. He said he is an international schnapps brewing champion (meisterschnappsbrewer) since 2002 and does not need additional problems.
Daphne asked if he knows how to properly fill a ocean container. The boys asked if they could go home to play Wii.
