R. Jelinek Bohemia Honey Brandy (70cl, 35%)

R. Jelinek Bohemia Honey is a honey liqueur built on three-year-old triple-distilled plum brandy, or slivovitz, from late-harvested plums. The brandy is infused with pure linden honey and tank-rested to harmonise, giving a golden honey liqueur with slight fruit flavours and a lingering hint of honey, dried plums and caramel. The base slivovitz is triple-distilled from late-harvested estate plums and aged three years before blending with genuine linden honey. Linden honey brings floral, almost minty character that lifts the dried-plum and caramel notes of the aged brandy. The aroma is natural honey with a light fruity undertone. The palate shows dried plums and caramel lifted by lime-blossom honeyed notes, with a silky texture. The finish is long, with lingering honey and a whisper of plum skin.
