Pilzer Quince brandy

Aroma: Quince, fruity

Alcohol content: 40% vol.

Taste: elegant, persistent

Formats: 0.5 cl.

FRUIT OF ORIGIN: Quince apples

GROWING AREA: Trentino

PROCESSING AND DISTILLATION:

Pilzer's Acquavite di Mele Cotogne comes from the Trentino tradition of leaving a quince in the cupboard to give a fresh fruity scent to clean clothes. After the harvest, the apples are kept cold for a short time, usually until December, before being turned into puree. This is followed by careful fermentation and distillation in discontinuous bain-marie stills. The spirit produced is stored for over a year in steel tanks before being bottled.

ORGANOLEPTIC CHARACTERISTICS:

Undoubtedly brilliant and crystal clear, it reminds the nose of ripe Quince with a complex, pleasant and unmistakably precise scent. The flavour is clean, with an alcoholic note and an extremely rich, precise, balanced aftertaste.

TASTING RECOMMENDATIONS:

Serving temperature 16 °C. Store in a cool, dark place.
