PLUM BRANDY OLD 500ml ZU PLUN

PLUM BRANDY OLD

Plum brandy old. For the plum brandy from the Zu Plun distillery use is made exclusively of typical plums of South Tyrol farms, which are grown directly by Plunhof at about
1100 m altitude. The plums that grow in this climate characterised by strong temperature oscillations are small and compact, with a more concentrated aroma than common
fruits. It is this aroma that is expected to reveal itself to the full in the plum brandy, which is why the ripe fruits are cautiously stoned before further processing. The fruit thus
handpicked and prepared is carefully mashed. After natural fermentation without additives the pulp is distilled twice. For the Plum Brandy Old the distillate is stored fort wo
years exclusively in an oak barrel, where it finally combines with the typical notes of cinnamon, caramel and vanilla.
