EGIAZKI SPIRITUEUX - Spiritueux naturels Basques

Tasting a patxaran liqueur is an essential experience in any stay in the Basque Country ! Wild sloe, sugar, water, alcohol and aniseed. A double maceration. The first is a cold extraction. This involves three-week premaceration of the sloes in 96% pure alcohol. (cold extraction releases the maximum aromas from the sloes and gives the and gives the alcohol its beautiful crimson-red color). Then a second maceration after reduction in anisette (house blend -> this is where EGIAZKI's secret EGIAZKI's secret). This homemade anisette allows us to control the balance balance between sugar, anise and fruit. This process takes between 6 and 8 months. Our liqueurs are not filtered, except when we reach the very end of the vat to eliminate as much sediment as possible. 70 cl

A great classic in the family of liqueurs ! Quickly after the Patxaran, we decided to create our own mint liqueur recipe. Our range of liqueurs playing more on sweetness and subtlety, we have bet here on intensity and freshness. Beyond its freshness, Menta Egiazki stands out for its lightness, roundness and subtle spices. We achieved this balance by combining two varieties of mint, one peppery and the other green. The first provides a feeling of absolute freshness and the second softens this subtle blend. Our recipe is made from natural essences of spearmint and peppermint leaves obtained by distillation. You should also know that this beautiful green color displayed by the Menta does not hide excess sugar and only reinforces the effect of freshness in the mouth.

Artisanal apple liqueur, created by macerating wild apples from the Basque Country in aniseed alcohol called "anisette". It is a gourmet liqueur with the taste of caramelized apple pie. Wild apples, aniseed, water, sugar and alcohol The production process is the same as for patxaran. A double maceration; initially a cold extraction for around three weeks in neutral alcohol, followed by a maceration for 3 months after reduction with an anisette anisette. 70 cl

To expand our range of spirits, the Egiazki house has decided to work on a Gin with flavors from the Basque Country using sloe. A recipe that combines the sweetness of sloe with the invigorating character of juniper berries. This fruity alliance gives a very harmonious Gin : delicate, slightly bitter, both tonic and fresh. At the tasting, the nose is floral and refined, and the mouth marked by the sloe. The Gin Arana will seduce you with its refined bitterness and its aromas of citrus fruits, absinthe and ginger.
