Maraska Slivovitz Kosher Brandy

Maraska Slivovitz Kosher Brandy is a pure and expressive plum-brand handcrafted spirit. With ripe stone-fruit character, discreet oak depth and a crisp finish, it offers a distinctive option for sipping or special occasions—especially for those seeking a kosher-certified brandy choice.

Origins & Craftsmanship

Produced in Croatia by Maraska, this brandy is distilled from 100% blue plums grown in the Adriatic hinterland, with six- to eight-year-old trees yielding the fruit. The production uses a classic process: fruit is fermented, then double-distilled, and matured in oak casks for a period to soften and develop complexity. It is certified Kosher for Passover, making it suitable for kosher observing consumers and holiday meals.

Tasting Profile

Nose: A bright aroma of freshly picked plums, dark cherries and prune juice, intertwined with almond paste and soft vanilla. Underlying hints of orchard blossom and a light wood seasoning add subtle depth.
Palate: Medium-bodied, juicy and rich. You’ll taste cooked plum, black cherry, and baked apricot, balanced by sweet almond, honey-glazed fruit and a touch of cinnamon spice. The oak adds a whisper of toast and light tannin without overpowering the fruit.
Finish: Clean, well-balanced and slightly dry. The fruit lingers—plum skin, gentle nut-shell bitterness, a subtle herbal edge and a final trace of mellow oak. The finish invites another sip rather than demanding a pause.
