\n

The sloe plum is\na genus of tree directly related to the plum family. When fall comes, this\nthorny bush of medium size produces small, round, dark blue-to-black stone fruits. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our sloe plums\ngrow in the wilds of the Carpathian mountains. Their sweet, mild flavor of bitter\nalmond, plum and fine cherry only fully develops with the first frosts of the\nseason, so until then our growers patiently watch and wait. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The sloe plums\nare then harvested by hand and transported fresh \u2013 never frozen \u2013 to our\ndistillery, where they are processed immediately. This is the only way of\nmaintaining the fine flavor of the fresh fruit in all its rich complexity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We need up to 100kg (220 pounds) of plums to produce just one liter of this precious fruit brandy, because the sloe plum\u2019s naturally low sugar content limits the amount of alcohol that can be generated. The result, however, is certainly worth the effort: a rare distillate with fine bitter almond flavors and a hint of fruity plum.<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"featured_media":1085,"template":"","tags":[],"art":[36],"class_list":["post-1478","sorten","type-sorten","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","art-rare-varieties"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nSloe Plum - Rochelt<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rochelt.com\/en\/variety\/sloe-plum\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Sloe Plum - Rochelt\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"The sloe plum is a genus of tree directly related to the plum family.
