Krucefix is a small family-owned distillery established in 2009. Based in Križe (Cross), Slovenia, near border with Austria. Located at the foothills on the sunny side of Julian Alps near the church of St. Cross, under the Cross Mountain (Kriška gora), connected with our village with more than 400 years old path of the St. Cross. Because we love nature and it is an indispensable part of the chain in our company everything is made with pleasure, dedication to work and plenty of positive mood. Many of the ingredients used in the Krucefix range are picked from the surrounding mountains, pastures and foothills up to altitudes of 1500 metres and more. We are passionate into unique way of distilling and producing highest quality spirits with limited series. That's why the whole Krucefix range are 100% natural products without any chemical preservatives, artificial colours or emulsifiers. The eaux de vie contain only quality alcohol fermented entirely from the plant or fruit used, which sets it apart from other eaux de vie distilleries. For the liqueurs, water from the Alps, natural sugar and a syrup extracted from the tree cone, fruit or plant. An incredibly high level of detail, care, attention and time is devoted to every bottle produced, with each labelled and sealed by hand with the date of manufacture. The fact that the Krucefix range are living, natural products necessarily results in slight changes in colour, taste and aroma. All the ingredients used in spirits and liqueurs are locally sourced, either in the Krucefix “garden”, which encompasses the wild Alpine mountains, pastures and foothills that surround the distillery, or further afield within the Gorenjska region. It is because of dedication to manually manufacture the highest quality products and the harvesting of ingredients far away from the hustle and bustle of the human, in an unspoiled wilderness. With all this reasons Krucefix provide primal spirits and liqueurs limited. Take a minute of your time and check our site www.krucefix.com and feel the brief of our brand and distillery.
