Pear Eau de Vie
A classic, dry, European style brandy, capturing the fruit essence of Wisconsin grown pears.

Distilled From: Dry pear mash at 5%
Distillation Method: Double pot distilled on our Vendome
Alcohol: 40% alcohol by volume (80 proof)
Serving: Serve neat, on the rocks or use in cocktails.
Winemaker Philippe Coquard and son-in-law Tom Lenerz bring a winemaking approach to the spirits with attention to terroir, slow fermentations and quality of woods sourced for barrel aging, resulting in this fine spirit.
