A very well made mirabelle plum eau-de-vie from Nusbaumer distillery.

Mirabelles are small yellow plums with a gentle, honeyed flavour. To produce this eau-de-vie, Nusbaumer allows the fruit to naturally ferment, before removing the stones and distilling the fruit in a copper still. To make one litre of eau-de-vie requires between 9 and 10kg of fruit.

The spirit is then aged for a while in stainless steel containers, which ensures full integration of flavour. After ageing, water from the Vosges mountains is added, reducing the spirit to 45%.

The spirit itself perfectly encapsulates the fruit, with notes of honey, flowers, soft yellow plums, plum jam and white pepper.

Fresh and bright – this is delicious served over ice.
