Michael Mittermeier Presents His First Whiskies: Lucky & Punch, Two Limited Single Casks from St. Kilian, Exclusively on Spiritory

Lucky & Punch Available to Preorder from Today

Munich, 14 October 2026: Michael Mittermeier, Germany's comedy legend and a self-confessed lover of good whisky for many years, has now created his very first dram. Together with the award-winning St. Kilian Distillers, he presents Lucky & Punch, two single cask single malts named after his comedy club. There are only 500 bottles of each, and every single one is available exclusively on Spiritory, where preorders open today at 11:00 CEST.

From the Stage to the Cask

For Michael Mittermeier, six-time winner of the German Comedy Award, whisky has never been a sideline. He has been a great fan of Scotch single malt for years. In his video podcast “Mittermeiers Whisky Montag”, every glass came with a story, told the way only a comedian can. So his first whisky had to carry more than his name. It had to bring his art and his passion together.

Lucky Punch is the comedy club he has run with his wife Gudrun since 2023, with venues in Munich and Vienna. A place for the unexpected hit that lands against all odds. For his first whisky, Mittermeier split the name in two: Lucky for the softer, sweeter cask, Punch for the one that hits harder.

“For me, making whisky is an interplay of creativity, craft and tradition, quite comparable to comedy. While I present my art on stage, whisky unfolds its magic in the glass and on the tongue, and I am proud to now present my very own first expressions. The makers at St. Kilian really know their craft, and together we have landed two real hits. With Spiritory, we also have a retail partner that stands for fine whisky.”

Two Casks, Two Characters

The whiskies were not chosen from a catalogue. Mittermeier travelled to St. Kilian in Rüdenau, Lower Franconia, walked through the warehouse, tasted his way extensively from cask to cask and picked the two that would carry his name. The result is a pair that could hardly be more different: one shaped by a sweet fortified wine from Portugal, the other by heavy peat and Tawny Port.

“Where else do you find that: a mega comedian from Bavaria who is also an absolute whisky expert and loves whisky! This collaboration was made for us at St. Kilian, and now it's full throttle with Lucky & Punch.”

Andreas Thümmler, founder of St. Kilian Distillers

St. Kilian Lucky by Michael Mittermeier 50cl

Lucky comes from Cask Nr.9394, a former Moscatel de Setúbal cask. Distilled in July 2022, it was bottled as a single cask at 46.7% vol, with no added colour and no chill filtration, and is limited to 500 bottles of 500 ml. In the glass it opens with floral and winey notes and fresh orange, joined by dried fruit, caramelised walnuts, honey and toffee, carried by creamy vanilla and gentle oak spice. On the palate it is soft, round and balanced: honeyed sweetness and fruit gradually give way to creamy toffee and fine nutty notes. The long finish lingers on vanilla, sweet toffee and caramelised walnuts.

Punch comes from Cask Nr.5914, a former Tawny Port cask, and is heavily peated at 80 ppm. Distilled in November 2020, it was bottled as a single cask at 48.3% vol, with no added colour and no chill filtration, and is likewise limited to 500 bottles of 500 ml. In the glass it opens fruity with red fruit and ripe figs, backed by gentle oak spice and a touch of cinnamon. On the palate it is creamy and full bodied, the ashy smoke settling gently over the fruity, spicy notes without overpowering them. The long finish belongs to dark chocolate and well integrated smoke.

Lucky & Punch is sold nowhere else. Both whiskies are available exclusively on Spiritory, where preorders open on Wednesday, 14 October 2026, at 11:00 CEST. Each bottle costs €59 plus shipping.
