Koenig Distillery and Winery

Koenig Distillery combines Old Word traditions with some of the Northwest’s finest ingredients to produce classic eau-de-vie fruit brandies, super-premium vodka and award-winning whiskey. For proprietor Andrew Koenig, the idea to establish a distillery in Southwest Idaho has roots in Europe, where he lived for three years in his father’s hometown of Lustenau, Austria. There, pears and apples and plums were transformed into clear, distinctive spirits. Later, Andrew returned to the Austrian Alps where he was an apprentice at a 400 year old facility where the centuries old tradition of distilling locally grown fruit was perfected.
