About Kalevala Distillery

Driven by his constant curiosity and wide-ranging interest the young half Finnish, half German Moritz Wüstenberg started distilling his own spirits in the garage of his mothers home while studying to become a chemical engineer. The history of his maternal home town of Kitee (a renowned bootlegging center during the era of prohibition in the 1930´s) aroused an unconscious passion for the world of spirits. 2012 Moritz set-up his own small distillery in a disused barn. Whenever time permitted, Moritz was found toying with his beloved stills and developing new ideas.
