Most Awarded Apple Cider from Germany

Grown for over 130 years.

It was 1881 when Philipp Possmann opened the Gasthof zum Taunus with a connected cider winery. Due to the economic growth in Frankfurt, there were more and more thirsty workers to serve drinks to. While on the Frankfurt side of the Main river the business districtwith its high rises was growing on the other side of the river (Sachsenhausen) was developing as a cozy entertaining place with all of its applewine taverns. For over 134 years, the Possmann family has made traditional German apple wine and apple juice in the manner first handed down by Philipp Possmann in 1881.

Only the best

Possmanns focus since its founding days has been on premium quality of the raw materials (apples) as well as the craftsmanship of wine making. Already in 1929 the company started receiving awards for its premium quality products. Up until today Possmann’s hard ciders are by far the most awarded of Germany.
