True distilling art – a unique pear brandy

For the Pleterje pear, after the pear trees have flowered, the special bottle is attached to the small pears. The bottle is closed with a net and cloth so that the pear is neither exposed to too much nor too little light and does not overheat. In its small ‘greenhouse’, it then grows to its full size and the full pear aroma develops. As soon as this is achieved, the pear and the bottle are separated from the tree and the bottle is cleaned by hand with special small brushes. Great craftsmanship.

After that, the pear brandy from the monastery's own distillery, made from the pears of the monastery's own garden, is bottled and completes this unique brandy from Slovenia.

However, the pear is by no means just decoration. It gives the pear brandy its freshness and fullness over time, which makes it so unique. You can also fill the bottle with the pear a second time. However, the fresh pear aroma will not be quite as intense.
