Fruit brandies are
made using fresh fruits, which are sliced and
steeped in pure alcohol. They don’t neccessarily
need to be made with a brandy base – De
Kuyper choose to use neutral spirit to produce
their fruit brandies, which gives them a cleaner
flavour, and allows more of the natural fruit
flavours to come through. Other natural essences
are added such as herbs and spices and sugar.
De Kuyper
also use the whole of the fruit in the making
of their fruit brandies, so that there is amore
complex fruity taste to the final liqueur. De
Kuyper Cherry Brandy has a rich almondy flavour
which comes from using the cherry pips as well
as the rich flesh of the cherries. |
