Eau-de-Vie de Poire du Valais

(Valais Pear Eau de Vie, Pear Brandy from Valais)

This clear, colorless fruit brandy is produced from fermented Williams pears that are cultivated in Valais. The final distillate is combined with water to reach the desired 40% ABV, and it is then aged for a minimum of six months. This strong spirit is characterized by its intense pear flavor and subtle herbaceous aromas.


It is usually enjoyed as a digestif that is best served neat and well-chilled, but it is also incorporated in cocktails and desserts.
