Emil Scheibel was born on November 11, 1899 in Kappelrodeck in the Black Forest. The chronic lack of money of the Black Forest farmers, who preferred to pay in kind in the form of home-distilled kirsch, led to Emil Scheibel joining the schnapps. In 1921 he bought an old Black Forest farm, which is still the company's headquarters today, founded the Emil Scheibel Black Forest distillery there and created the basis for a business that, under his heirs Louis and Michael Scheibel, made the name a brand name for Black Forest spirits - worldwide.
