Gentian (spirit) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Gentian (spirit)
Gentian (also: Gentian spirit or Gentian schnapps) is a distilled alcoholic beverage originating in the Alpine region, produced using gentian root. Many curative properties are attributed to this aromatic and bitter spirit; it is often taken for digestive problems. == Production ==
Despite the perception that the spirit is produced with gentian flowers (which are depicted in the labeling by many producers), Gentian is actually produced using gentian root,〔, §18(a)〕 most commonly the yellow gentian, which is a larger variety. Less commonly, the roots from other flowers from the Gentian genus are used, such as the purple gentian, brown gentian, or spotted gentian. The harvesting of gentian from the wild is strictly controlled; as a result, fields are planted with the specific purpose of being harvested. In both the EU and Switzerland, the alcoholic strength of Gentian must be at least 37.5 percent alcohol by volume.〔, §18(b)〕〔 (Minimum Alcohol Content of Spirits ) – The Federal Government of the Swiss Confederation〕 The oldest Gentian distillery in Germany is the Enzianbrennerei Grassl in Berchtesgaden.
