Additional description

It is said that the first fruit brandy was distilled by the Arabs, whereas the Egyptians and the Ancient Greeks were already masters at making it. The consumption of fruit brandy first spread amongst the people during an outbreak of "Black Death" in the second half of the 14th century as protection against the disease. In the olden days almost every farm in Upper Carniola distilled its own fruit brandy. Until now, however, only the farms producing high-quality fruit brandy have held out.
 
This exquisite melange of various fruits from Upper Carniola is made according to an ancient monastery recipe and enriched by wondrous characteristics of mint (M. villosa) and lemon balm (Melissa officinalis L.).




In our farm shop all herbal liqueurs are also available as 40 ml and 375 ml miniatures, which make great gifts, in addition to standard size 1 liter bottles.
