The brandy is produced by double-distilling high-acidity wines made from Fetească Regală and Riesling grapes, a varietal combination that lends bright fruit character to the base spirit. After distillation, the brandy matures for a minimum of five years in barrels made from Transylvanian oak, which imparts a distinctive warm spice and toasted quality that sets it apart from Western European brandies.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cu\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAroma:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eDried apricot and stewed plum rise first on the nose, followed by warm vanilla and a faint trace of toasted oak.
