Proof: 41% Alc. by Vol. (82 Proof)

100% pure pear “eau de vie” made from Bartlett (Williams) pears from Flathead Lake. It takes 14 pounds of pears to make each bottle. The taste is strong but clean and leaves a surprisingly distinct pear finish.

Sizes: 375ml

Distillers Notes

This pure pear eau-de-vie starts with whole, ripe pears, fermented and then double-distilled to preserve the fruit’s natural essence. No barrel aging, flavoring, or sweeteners are introduced, allowing subtle notes of cooked pear, gentle earthiness from the skins, and a crisp, clean finish to come through. Each bottle represents a remarkable density of flavor—nearly 14 pounds of pears concentrated into a smooth, aromatic spirit.
