Plum Brandy Rudolf Jelínek Strana 1 z 1

Plum brandy, known locally as Slivovica, is one of the most famous and traditional fruit spirits in Central Europe. It is made by distilling fermented plums and is prized for its distinctive aroma, gentle sweetness, and smooth fruity finish. A quality Slivovica is crystal clear, with a pure fruit tone and a warm, harmonious taste on the palate.

How fine Slivovica is made

The process begins with selecting ripe plums rich in sugar and aroma. After fermentation, the mash is slowly distilled in copper stills, producing a spirit full of depth and character. Some Slivovicas are aged in oak barrels, which give them a subtle golden hue and delicate notes of vanilla or wood.

How to enjoy it

Serve Slivovica at room temperature in a small tasting glass – only then will its aroma and warmth fully unfold. It’s perfect as a digestif after a meal or as a thoughtful gift for those who appreciate honest craftsmanship and pure flavor.
