CHACHANSKA LEPOTICA - ARTISAN PRODUCT

Damson  

VARIETY:
Chachanska Lepotica

ORIGIN:
This elegant plum brandy is produced from plums that originate from the Malesevski region, wellknown in the country for its rich tradition in plum spirits production.

HARVEST:
The Chachanska Lepotica plums are hand-harvested at the peak of their ripeness, ensuring optimal sweetness and aroma, which later translate into the complex flavor profile of the brandy.

FERMENTATION & DISTILLATION:
After harvesting, plums are crushed and de-pitted to kickstart fermentation at a controlled 15- degree Celsius temperature. This slow, deliberate process captures the full character of the plums in the final spirit. Following fermentation, a sixfold distillation intensifies the plum's intrinsic flavors, resulting in a potent spirit with 80% alcohol volume.

MATURATION:
The freshly distilled spirit ages for three years in new 400-liter French oak barrels, gaining a beautiful amber color and complex flavors like vanilla, toffee, honey, and spice. The wood interaction over time adds depth and complexity. The final plum brandy is carefully diluted to 43% alcohol, achieving a perfect balance of intensity and drinkability.

TASTING NOTES:
Damson Plum Brandy is an elegant elixir, offering a delightful balance of fruity and sweet-spicy aromas. Its unique character arises from a fusion of authentic black plums, honey, nuts, and vanilla nuances. This luxurious spirit promises a heightened experience.

FOOD PAIRING:
It pairs perfectly with intense cheeses, desserts based on fruit and nuts.

IDEAL SERVING TEMPERATURE:
For a perfect experience serve from 6°C to 8°C.
