Watermelon digestive with honey

Limited series 2800 bottles 0.5 l, 38.5% alc., contains honey

“Creating the watermelon distillate for Watermelon digestif with honey follows the strata maxim that without effort there is no future. I love traditions, and in the region where I grew up, watermelons are highly valued and extremely sought after for their taste. The production of this rich drink united innovative and reality-changing people. A cause with a cultural, social, ecological and spiritual imprint.

And to all those who look skeptically and dismissively at watermelon distillate, I send them many greetings from Balchik. Yes – you may not feel like hearing this, but Balchik is the place that is shaping up to be the new hot spot for non-traditional fermentations and distillates.

I am often asked how I make “watermelon brandy”? The hardest part was convincing the people involved in the process of creating it that everything we do makes sense, even if there is no written recipe. There is no success without mistakes, there is no rakia without frostbitten fingers from the frozen watermelon. This is the simple philosophy of the technology. To turn it from rakia into a digestif, I decided to blend it with honey after the triple distillation to enhance the intense aftertaste of watermelon rind, freshness and summer.”
