Etter - Kirsch Eau de Vie 375ml

Etter Kirsch Eau de Vie represents the gold standard of Swiss fruit brandy. Since 1870, the Etter family has been synonymous with the finest cherry spirits in the world. Produced in the Zug AOP region of Switzerland, this spirit captures the true essence of the fruit. It takes a staggering amount of produce to make just one bottle. More than 10 pounds of fresh, small black mountain cherries are distilled to create this concentrated liquid.

These cherries are sourced exclusively from the best locations around Lake Zug. During production, a high concentration of cherry pits is included. This technique imparts a distinctive and prominent almond note that defines the classic Zug style. Unlike spirits aged in oak, this brandy evolves gently for years in glass demijohns. This glass aging is essential to reveal the spirit's uncommon depth and richness while preserving its clarity.

The result is a spirit of intense concentration. It offers a pure, dry cherry flavor with a sophisticated almond finish. While it is famously enjoyed neat after dinner, it is also versatile. It is an essential ingredient for a traditional cheese fondue. Bartenders also love it as a dry, sugar-free alternative to Maraschino liqueur in cocktails like the Rose or an Espresso Martini.
