Vintage Sloe Eau-de-vie

Sloe is directly related to the plum. The medium-sized thorny shrub produces small spherical drupes in autumn, ranging in color from dark blue to black.

For this grappa, wild fruits from the forests of the Carpathians are used, where they are harvested only after the first frost. Only then does the true aroma emerge: a sweet and delicate taste of bitter almond, plum, and subtle cherry.

Immediately after harvesting, the fruits are transported under refrigeration – fresh and never frozen – and processed right away. Only in this way are the precious aromas preserved in their freshness and complexity.

Up to 100 kg of sloes are required for one liter of this noble grappa; the yield is highly limited due to the fruit’s low sugar content. On the palate, however, it reveals harmonious and delicately tart aromas with fine bitter almond notes and subtle fruity hints of plum.
