  Expert's Description

  Nordisk Brænderi Alexander Lucas Pear Brandy is a Danish fruit spirit distilled from Alexander Lucas pears, bottled at 40%.

  Nordisk Brænderi is based in Fjerritslev in North Jutland and was founded in 2009 by Anders Bilgram. The first drops were distilled on home-built copper stills, and Anders's background as a chemist gave a solid foundation for the recipes the distillery has developed since.

  The Alexander Lucas pear is known for its juicy, aromatic character, and when the fruit is fermented and distilled in the French eau-de-vie style, much of that fresh pear character carries through into the finished spirit – a craft that demands large quantities of fruit for a comparatively small yield of spirit.

  The style echoes classic French Poire brandy, but the fruit itself is thoroughly Danish, grown and distilled within a short distance of the distillery's copper stills.

  Did You Know?

  Before Nordisk Brænderi became a reality, founder Anders Bilgram set out on a 26,000-kilometre expedition around the Arctic in an open boat. Along the way, locals repeatedly offered him their own home-distilled spirits, and it was there the idea of starting a distillery of his own in North Jutland truly took shape.

  Nordisk Brænderi Filippa Apple Danish Brandy 35 cl 40%

  Item no.: 22227865480-67093-0349

  Autumn light slants through the apple trees of North Jutland, and the scent of ripe Filippa apples mixes with damp earth after rain – the same scent that, as a child, sent you sneaking into the neighbour's garden after the sweetest fruit.

  Expert's Description

  Nordisk Brænderi Filippa Apple Brandy is a Danish fruit spirit distilled from Filippa apples, bottled at 40%.

  Nordisk Brænderi in Fjerritslev, founded in 2009 by Anders Bilgram, gathers the best fruit from North Jutland orchards, ferments it and distils it on home-built copper stills into what the French call eau-de-vie, and what we simply call fruit brandy at home.

  Filippa is an old apple variety that has been grown in Denmark for generations, prized for its firm texture and its winey, aromatic flavour – qualities that make it well suited to distillation, since the character survives the whole process.

  The result is a clear spirit where both aroma and flavour stay close to the apple itself, with no added sugar or colour.

  Tasting Notes

  Nose

  Ripe apple, a touch of pressed juice and a light winey sweetness.

  Palate

  Distinctly fruity with clear apple character, balanced alcohol and a pleasant fullness on the palate.

  Finish

  Medium length, clean and lightly tangy, closing on a hint of apple skin.

  Did You Know?

  In French this style of spirit is called eau-de-vie, meaning water of life, while in Danish it is simply called fruit brandy – but the method is the same: the best fruit is gathered, fermented, distilled and bottled, with no shortcuts taken.
