Hazelnut Spirit (ORGANIC) - 50cl

The "common hazel", also called hazel bush or hazelnut bush, is a plant species from the birch family. It is native to Europe and Asia Minor and very common in Central Europe. Hazelnuts are well known for their edible fruits, which have been used by humans for thousands of years. The nuts or the hazelnut oil obtained from them are mostly used for baked goods, sweets (nougat, brittle) and ice cream.    So it was obvious for us to process the unique taste of hazelnuts into a spirit. For this purpose, the chopped, lightly roasted nuts are placed in neutral alcohol and, after a certain maceration period, gently and slowly distilled so that the aromas of the hazelnut can be captured well. The result is a wonderfully nutty spirit with an intense taste of hazelnuts, light chocolate and nougat notes and subtle roasted aromas. The hazelnuts used here come from an organic farm in Piedmont. They are hand-picked and of exceptional quality, which is reflected in the taste of the distillate. Goes particularly well with chocolate. Ideal drinking temperature: 18 - 20 degrees
