Experience the authentic taste of Central Europe with Zwack Slivovitz, a traditional plum brandy aged for 3 years and bottled at 80 proof (40% ABV). Crafted from carefully selected plums, this spirit offers a robust and fruity character with subtle notes developed through its aging process. Expect a warming and distinctive spirit that embodies the heritage of plum brandy production.
Tasting Notes:
- Aroma: A prominent and inviting aroma of ripe plums fills the nose, often with hints of plum skin and a subtle fruity sweetness. Underlying notes of almond and a touch of earthy character may also be present, developed during the three years of aging.
- Flavor: The palate is greeted with a bold and genuine plum flavor, carrying a slight sweetness balanced by a subtle dryness. Nuances of almond and a gentle woody spice may emerge from the aging process, adding complexity to the spirit's core fruitiness.
- Mouthfeel: Smooth and warming, with a medium body that coats the palate. The 80 proof provides a noticeable but balanced warmth.
- Finish: The finish is moderately long and distinctly fruity, with the plum notes lingering alongside a gentle warmth and a subtle hint of almond. It leaves a clean and authentic plum brandy impression.
