Trimbach Kirsch Cherry Eau de Vie 750ml

Producer Description 

Extremely pure and clear with aromas of fresh cherries with hints of baking spices. Crisp and clean, pure fruit cherry flavors with a long finish. Serve well-chilled from the refrigerator or freezer. Often served over ice cream or other desserts as a flavor enhancer. Can be used as a flavored base for mixed drinks and baked goods.

After crushing the fruit, fermentation begins at temperature control between 71°F and 77°F followed by distillation in copper alembics at a minimum temperature of 140°F. The aroma and the taste of the original fruit is extracted and conserved during the distillation process using steam heated stills. Distillation is a single continuous process with the elimination of the initial “head” and final “tail” distillate in order to keep only the best of the distillation called the “heart.”

Kirsch Grande Réserve undergoes ageing in stainless steel for a minimum of 16 months
