Fine distillates - The finest fruit brandy made from the best fruit
In the fine distillates category, we have compiled some of the best fruit brandies, arrays and other high-quality brandies. There is a lot to discover, especially when it comes to fruit brandies. While everyone has probably had a “Willi”, or Williams pear brandy, orange brandy, quince brandy, plum brandy, apple brandy, rowanberry brandy and carrot brandy are unfortunately still unknown to many connoisseurs. Exciting noble distillates such as cocoa spirit, chocolate distillate or hazelnut spirit can also be produced from more exotic ingredients. In French, by the way, fruit brandies are called eau de vie, or water of life. Fruit brandies are traditionally enjoyed as a digestif and slightly chilled. Well-known brands include Secret Treasures, Lantenhammer, Reisetbauer, Dettling and Vallendar.

Mascaro Marc Orujo 0.7L 42% Bodegas Mascaró The distillery is now in its third generation and is run by the Mascaró family. In addition to producing sparkling wines and quality wines, the family also distills spirits.
