Now the apparatus is the heart of the Zeitzer Whisky Manufacture. It was first used in 1950 in Luckenwalde, Brandenburg, by the company C.W. Falckenthal Söhne. Since April, the historic still has been running again several times a month. The manufactory in Zeitz distils around 22000 litres of pure alcohol per year. New barrels are regularly added to the warehouse, and a maximum of one barrel per month is bottled. At the moment three and five year old whisky is available.
