Elz Valley Distillery Weis: Spirits from the Black Forest

	Split Log Bottle Not only do the fine fruit brandies and liqueurs from the Elz Valley Distillery Georg Weis satisfy the palate and the soul, the distinctive split log bottle also cuts a good figure in every house bar. It's rhomboid form is textured like wood and appears simultaneously natural and refined. The design refers back to an old tradition.

The form is as original as the contents:
The split log bottle was designed in 1967 by the artist Walter Binz for the Elz Valley Distillery Georg Weis.

Split Log Bottle
At one time, wooden forms were used in making glass bottles, which gave the surface of each side of the bottle a special texture. Our split log bottles are of course made with modern industrial techniques. But they are reminiscent of the "good old days" -- the times when many of the recipes for our delicious white brandies and liqueurs originated.
