Stroh is a distilled from a secret blend of herbs and fruit to hefty strength of 80% alcohol. If you were lost in the snow and a St. Bernard brought you a cup of this, you would be pretty happy. The Stroh Rum brand is one of the best-known spirits from Austria. The name is widely used as a generic synonym for spirits with a similarly high alcohol content in Germanic speaking regions. The company is privately held by Austrian owners.
