Eifel-Zwerg (“Eifel-Zwerg, der Aquavit der Vulkaneifel”) is a German aquavit originally produced by Rockeskyller Brennerei Neuerburg in Rockeskyll, Vulkaneifel. It was bottled at 42% ABV.

Rockeskyller Brennerei described Eifel-Zwerg as a traditional aquavit with a fine bouquet of Eifel herbs, characterized by caraway, dill and lemon balm (Melisse), with caraway and lemon balm giving it its distinctive character.

Eifel-Zwerg later became part of the Peter Jobelius e.K. range and is still produced today at 42% ABV in 0.7 and 0.2 litre bottles, retaining the same characteristic botanicals.

Eifel-Zwerg should not be confused with Eifel-Aquavit, another 42% aquavit that was formerly produced by Rockeskyller Brennerei. They are two distinct products.
