Clear Apricot
in detail.

Fresh apricot opens the aromatic profile, followed by delicate peach and nectarine notes. The palate stays clear, smooth and precise, with a dry, fruit-led finish. With no added sugar or artificial flavours, this spirit expresses the character of ripe apricots.

EMIL 1868 / CRAFT

From fruit to distillate

Carefully selected, fully ripe apricots form the foundation. Slow, controlled fermentation develops their natural aromatic profile. Temperature, yeast activity and fermentation time are monitored before the mash is distilled. Selective collection of the heart preserves the fruit and avoids heavy, jammy notes.
