Kirsch is eau-de-vie produced from cherries. We use tart, intensely-flavored Montmorency cherries, which grow abundantly in nearby New York State near Niagra Falls. The cherries are picked at their ripest, quick-frozen to preserve their optimum flavor - then cold-fermented with a select winemakers’ yeast. To extract all the natural flavor, we ferment the whole fruit, including the pits. It takes about 5 lbs. of cherries to yield a single 200 ml bottle of Kirsch eau-de-vie. The result is a clean, but subtle cherry aroma with a hint of almond, delivering a smooth, long finish - a perfect accompaniment or follow-up to chocolate desserts, fruit or almond tarts. In recipes, Kirsch accentuates the flavors of other ingredients without being overpowering. In cocktails, it adds the true, distinctive cherry flavor without the ”artificial cherry-ness” people unfortunately associate with this precious fruit.

| Imagine walking through a perfect country orchard on a clear, bright summer day. Suddenly, your senses are overwhelmed by the aromatic purity and power of fresh fruit. That is the eau-de-vie experience. Simply defined, it is clear fruit brandy, a distilled spirit made from 100% natural fruit. Pure, yet powerful. Delicate and delectable. Although Europeans have prized eau-de-vie or ”water of life” for generations, the first sip is a completely new experience for most Americans. In the spirit of the artisan distillers, Westford Hill Distillers proudly blends European tradition with American craftsmanship, starting with the highest quality fruit from the abundant orchards of the northeast. Saveur Magazine called us, ”The best thing to do with fruit in Connecticut. ” We invite you to explore for yourself. |
