500 Years of Distilling Heritage

Coming from the oldest distillery in Europe, Old Hunter’s is made using the traditional recipe, way back in 1518, of Green Tree Distillery founder Jakub Vojacek

A 500-year distilling dynasty

  • Old Hunter’s Selection honors a 500 year commitment to quality. Our tradition began in 1518. when High Marshall of Bohemia, Vilem of Pernštejn, granted the right to brew spirits to 31 land owners, among them, Green Tree Distillery.
  • Another milestone in Old Hunter‘s history was the innovative approach of pioneer distiller Jakub Vojacek who brought his ground breaking distilling method to Bohemia and his Rye Whisky formula spread like wildfire throughout the country. Today, his recipe, principles and traditional distillation process remain unchanged.

A Grown-Up Rye

  • By law, whisky must be aged at least 3 years in Czechia and Canada. Old Hunter’s Selection provides the finest selection aged for 7 years, bringing 5 centuries old distilling tradition to our modern consumers.
  • Every bottle is handpicked from the highest quality rye distillate from only the finest barrels, producing a complex yet exceptionally delicate taste sophisticated flavor and shining golden color.

Smoothly Delicate Taste

Aged in American Oak barrels, our multiple award-winning Old Hunter's Selection embodies dedication to quality and consistency.

Sophistication takes time and gentle care

  • Old Hunter’s is aged patiently. During its first 4 years of aging, our whisky develops a soft, fruity flavor with hint of spiciness synonymous with rye.
  • However, only the finest batches have the honor of selection by Master Distiller Roman Petruš to mature for their final 3 years.
  • Breathing in American Oak barrels, the whisky develops its signature complexity, with plentiful notes of citrus, sherbet with a hint of vanilla.
  • After 7 years deep in the cellar underneath the historic Green Tree Distillery, Old Hunter’s Selection matures into an exceptionally smooth whisky its forefathers would proudly toast to. Celebrate tradition.
