• Found throughout the Adriatic, the white fig is a unique variety found throughout the wild islands of Croatia, nestled among olive trees and wild juniper bushes. Harvesting these fruits is extremely difficult, as almost all of the area is composed of rocky slopes overlooking the sea. The white fig is at its best only when fully ripe, so we wait until it is almost dry on the tree, allowing it to fully develop its aromas and sugar content. Unfortunately, ripening often doesn't occur simultaneously for all the figs, which requires harvesting the same tree over and over again. The fruit, harvested daily, is packed into containers and begins to ferment spontaneously. Once a sufficient quantity for distillation is obtained, the figs are immediately brought here to the distillery to be ground and complete the fermentation process. After nearly thirty years, we've decided to continually reintroduce this spirit, which offers a blend of ripe, dried fruit notes and the fresher, more vegetal notes of prickly pear. It's enveloping, velvety, and persistent on the palate.
