Story
The Vieilles Eaux-de-Vie range is the pinnacle of Nusbaumer's artisanal know-how. This Eau-de-Vie is crafted from big "prune-quetsche". These fruits are red-purplish with yellow flesh, very sweet and juicy, coming from the sunny hills of Sundgau farms.
After 4 weeks of natural fermentation, the seeds are removed and the fruits distilled in traditional small copper stills. Unlike the Exception range, this Eau-de-Vie is aged in oak casks for 8 years, which gives it a longer and powerful lingering finish.
At the end of this long ageing process, the alcohol content is reduced to 42% using water from their own mountain spring water. This spring water, running through purple shale rock, is characterized by its extreme purity which gives it its singular strength.
