Antique Pelinkovac stands as a testament to a distilling legacy that dates back to 1862. Originally crafted by the renowned distiller Pokorny, whose creations won over sixty medals and earned the Golden Cross for Merit from Emperor Franjo Josip I, this premium herbal liqueur continues to set the standard today. It captures the true spirit of the Mediterranean with a recipe that remains unchanged and uncompromising.
The heart of this spirit lies in its unique production process. It is distilled in an authentic A. Ziemann copper still that has been in use since 1921. Over the last century, this still has accumulated crystallized plant residue, imparting a depth of flavor that cannot be replicated. The liquid is macerated with over forty indigenous herbs and botanicals, with aromatic wormwood playing the starring role. There are no artificial flavors or preservatives used here, ensuring a product of pure nature. Once distilled, the macerate is carefully aged in oak barrels to soften the edges and develop a rich, complex character.
In the glass, Antique Pelinkovac offers a luxurious texture and an intense aromatic profile. The bitterness of the wormwood is perfectly balanced by the herbal complexity and the warmth of the oak aging. Each bottle is marked with a unique serial number, guaranteeing quality control and attention to detail. It is best enjoyed well chilled with an ice cube and a slice of orange to highlight its citrus notes. It also serves as a sophisticated addition to coffee or a complex base for craft cocktails.
