Wacholder is a juniper-flavored distilled beverage and a regional variety of gin. It is produced predominantly in Westphalia, Emsland, Lippe, and the Rhineland. One of the oldest operating Wacholder distilleries is the Brennerei Eversbusch in Hagen, founded in the 18th century. ''Wacholder'' is the German word for "juniper". In Austria and regions of Bavaria, Wacholder is referred to as ''Kranewitter'', which is a regional term for the juniper plant. In Germany, Wacholder spirit can be used as an umbrella term for all juniper-flavored spirits such as Genever, Gin, Köm, Kranewitter, Krambambuli, and Steinhäger. A similar beverage, Borovička, is popular in Slovakia and the Czech Republic. It is strong-flavored owing to its method of distillation, and is traditionally served chilled as a neat shot, with a beer chaser. ==External links== *(Types of Gin ) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Wacholder」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
