Vinification of Etter Fruit Brandy 0.35 l

Ripe pome fruit from Switzerland is the starting point. Etter Fruit Brandy 0.35 l is based mainly on apple and pear. The fruit is carefully harvested and quickly brought to the estate.

Then it is cleaned, crushed and prepared as mash. Fermentation runs cool and calm so that the fruit remains pure. This keeps the picture clear and the aromas fine.

Distillation takes place in small batches. The distiller selects only the heart with great care. This keeps the spirit pure, smooth and delicate. Heavy notes are left aside.

This is followed by about three years of bottle rest. Everything then comes together into a clear whole. Etter Fruit Brandy 0.35 l is sold with a cork closure. The producer is Etter Soehne AG, Zug, Switzerland.
