Vieille Prune 35cl

The plums used are the sugar-sweet "Löhr" variety, which are ideally suited for distillation, particularly since they fall from the tree naturally only when extremely ripe. Hand-sorted and checked for their sugar content using a refractometer, the plums are first mashed and then subjected to temperature-controlled fermentation – the natural transformation of the fructose into alcohol. After slow distillation has been completed, the best parts of the ‘Löhr’ plum spirit are stored partly in 50 litre glass demijohns and partly in 225 litre oak barrels. Maturing time is approximately four years until, by assembling the two parts in varying ratios, a perfect harmony of fruity, floral and spicy tastes with a hint of almond is attained.
