Catoctin Creek proudly presents a family of fruit brandies made in the tradition of European fruit brandy. Each is made from 100% local fruit; we source from the various farms and orchards in the state, and often in our own county. The fruit is pressed it to juice, then fermented to a wine or hard cider.
This pear brandy maintains the fresh aroma of the fruit, where you can smell the light and musky elements of pear intertwined with the caramel and vanilla of the oak. With your first sip, you taste the sweetness and flesh of the pear fruit, and the aftertaste leaves a long lingering and pleasant flavor of the spirit. Honestly, Pearousia is simply divine!
Pearousia is an extremely limited release local pear brandy, produced from seasonal fruit offerings, and will be sold in 375 ml bottles so that it is accessible to more people. Only 1000 bottles will be made this season.
