Blume Marillen Apricot Eau-de-Vie Four Pillars with a buttery sweetness toThe Blume Marillen from Austria's Distillerie Purkhart is famed for its delicate floral bouquet and a long, elegant finish. Made from only the Klosterneuburger apricot, famous in the Wachau region in the Danube Valley, with over 4 lbs of apricots distilled for each bottle. Double distilled in traditional pot stills, this eau de vie is drawn from only a small portion, the heart of the mittlelauf, in the second distillation.
