When Passion becomes an Art\u200b<\/h2>

Located in the picturesque village of Ribeauville in the Alsace region of France, the Mette distillery carries on the time-honored craft of distillation.\u00a0 By remaining faithful to a traditional manufacturing process, Nathalie and Philippe Traber produce a range of 87 eaux-de-vie and 28 liqueurs made with love, diligence, and patience.<\/p>

Honoring Jean-Paul Mette\u2019s memory is of paramount importance to this family of craftsmen.\u00a0 Well-familiar with the mysteries of the still, they are passionate about sharing their love and expertise for distilling.\u00a0 In the discrete rue des Tanneurs, Nathalie and Philippe Traber create subtly distilled eaux-de-vie designed to please and delight connoisseurs and novices alike.<\/p>

\u201cI share my passion with you through my Eaux de Vie. It\u2019s the Eaux de Vie that\u2019s speak.\u00a0I still and always will distill in a small scale traditional way.<\/em>\u201d

A history of tradition and innovation<\/h2>

Jean-Paul Mette was only 18 years old when he caught the \u2018virus de la chauffe\u2019, a passion for distilling.\u00a0 After his father passed away, he found a mentor in his neighbor who taught him the intricacies of copper stills.<\/p>

In the mid-60\u2019s, he opened his own distillery and was dedicated to retaining product quality and integrity.\u00a0 Jean-Paul passed on his love of artisan distillation to his godson, Philippe Traber.\u00a0 By introducing him to the various secrets of fruits, fire and copper, he taught Philippe his passion of distilling, thereby grooming him to take over the business when he retired.\u00a0 Philippe\u2019s wife, Nathalie also grew up in a \u2018la chauffe\u2019 environment as her grandfather was himself a distiller.\u00a0 Together Philippe and Nathalie added more exotic and modern flavors to an already successful line of spirits.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Mette\u2019s new spirits remain faithful to Jean-Paul\u2019s core values of craft distillation by emphasizing quality over quantity.\u00a0 Each step of the distillation process encompasses not only a specialized skill-set, but also a profound respect for craftsmanship and a passion for quality distilling. Nathalie and Philippe Traber will pass down the artisanal distilling tradition to their son, Timothee, and nephew, Matthieu. They will learn the secrets of the Maitre distiller; rigor, patience, and meticulousness\u2014all the essential skills and qualities that contribute to Mette eaux-de-vie excellence.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
