    About the brandy

    A character worth remembering

    Sila dried plum brandy is made from carefully dried Stenlej plums. This raw material gives the distillate depth, a concentrated aroma, and a distinctive fullness that sets this brandy apart from classic šljivovica.

    Preparation begins with milling the dried plums, with selected enzymes and yeasts added to extract maximum aroma from the fruit. After fermentation and distillation, the brandy matures for three years, developing a rounded, warm, and layered profile.

    At 40% alcohol, this brandy combines intensity and elegance. It is ideal as a digestif, for special occasions, and for moments when a drink of rich structure and authentic taste is sought.
