Spirits
And as was to be expected at La Veguilla, we could not miss the opportunity to use fermented grapes to make something as tasty as marc distillates on lees from our Tempranillo from Ribera del Duero.
Pacharán pa’Charlar
Made from a distillate of our Tempranillo grapes in Ribera del Duero, on which we incorporate a maceration of aniseed grain, and we sublimate again, this time with a rectifying lentil, obtaining an aniseed-flavoured eau-de-vie with a high alcohol content on which we macerate ripe sloe berries for six months, obtaining an extraction of aromas and flavours during this time.
Gotas Santas
Gotas Santas was born under divine inspiration and after many tests with alquitars and other pot stills. And it is born elegant and subtle after a double distillation through an alembic with a rectifying lentil, and later a new sublimation with a vapour column.
With this double process we achieve a perfect entrainment of the organoleptic qualities of the grape skins, which give Gotas Santas intense floral aromas, fragrant, with elegant hints of grape… And an explosive and powerful palate, long, unctuous, with balsamic notes and hints of hazelnut, walnut and almond, assembled with touches of green apple and even grapefruit. In the glass the Gotas Santas is crystalline and transparent, and shows an abundant tear caused by glycerol and other higher alcohols.
“Balsam of Fierabrás, highly recommended for cold foggy days, to be taken alone or accompanied; ideal for after-dinner conversations on rainy days, or sunny, cold winter days.
As considerations of moderate interest, it should be noted that in family gatherings it should be administered under control to brothers-in-law and intellectuals, as it can provoke serious displays of exaltation of friendship and appearances of fixing the country”.
Maiquel Jackson
(white coffee brandy)
Maiquel Jackson defines itself as a flavoursome nectar produced by double distillation with coffee maceration in the middle of the production process.
With the skins of our grapes from the Ribera del Duero, we make a white, crystalline eau-de-vie with a broad floral aroma in a still with a rectifying lentil. We leave it to macerate for 30 days with three varieties of coffee beans, cocoa, cinnamon sticks and lemon peel. Once the colour and aromas of a coffee spirit have been extracted (dark mahogany, black walnut, chocolate and roasted aromas), it is distilled again, this time using a steam column, obtaining elegantly fine and very aromatic spirits, with an aftertaste of roasted coffee, toasted coffee and cocoa. A real coffee liqueur, but visually transparent white.
