From pressed, healthy Teran grapes, we first prepare a mash using a traditional method with no added sugar, then let it \u201cwork\u201d for a good six weeks. After six weeks, it is ready for slow distillation in copper stills. The flow must be thin. We discard the first two decilitres, then comes the spirit at no less than 45% alcohol, and finally the tail run, intended for redistillation. Each year, Miro produces around 100 litres of distillate, which he fills into glass flasks, where the spirit rests for at least another three years. \u201cSchnapps must be beneficial, harmonious, and have a long finish,\u201d Miro believes, knowing well that good schnapps is the foundation for great fruit spirits of different flavours.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;2\/3&#8243;][vc_column_text]<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1509 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.spacapan.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/IMGP5978-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"674\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.spacapan.si\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2017\/01\/IMGP5978-1.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.spacapan.si\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2017\/01\/IMGP5978-1-300x202.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.spacapan.si\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2017\/01\/IMGP5978-1-768x518.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;2\/3&#8243;][vc_column_text]<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1251 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.spacapan.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/3-3-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.spacapan.si\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2017\/01\/3-3-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.spacapan.si\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2017\/01\/3-3-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.spacapan.si\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2017\/01\/3-3-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;][vc_column_text]After three years, we turn part of the distillate into fruit-infused spirits, while the best distillates are given an additional three years of ageing.
