This 10-year-old gold kosher slivovitz
represents the continuation of gold slivovitz production in Vizovice. The idea of making gold slivovitz first came about as a result of the JelĂnek brothers’ experience with brandy production, which they started in 1923 in collaboration with the French cognac maker Denis MouniĂ©.
The 10 years it spends ageing in oak casks give it its gold colour, an aroma close to that of cognac, and a harmonious fruity flavour with a distinctive woody undertone.
Only the highest-quality hand-harvested plums are used for production. This is followed by the triple distillation of a ripe plum mash under the supervision of a representative of the Jewish Orthodox Union. The spirit is then aged for ten years under carefully controlled conditions, in a range of temperatures and with alternating exposure to air, which affects the resulting colour, flavour, and aroma. Its bottling is also supervised by a rabbi.
