Clear Creek Williams Pear Brandy 750mL

Our Pear Brandy is made in the tradition of France’s classic Eau de Vie de Poire Williams. Bartlett pears grown just an hour away in the Hood River Valley are crushed at their absolute peak of ripeness. This whole fruit mash is carefully fermented, and the spirit is distilled in our German-made pot stills. It takes 20 pounds of pears to make one 750ml bottle of Pear Brandy. The pear nose is intense, the taste is strong, but pure, and the aftertaste is clean with a surprisingly strong taste of pear. It is lovely served chilled.

The clear fruit brandies of France also known as eau de vie, which translates to “water of life”. In Germany, they’re referred to as “schnapps”. Most European countries have a local term for the clear, bone-dry brandies distilled from the regional fruit. Usually bottled at around 80 proof, these spirits are typically served at the end of a meal, or between courses, as the perfect digestif. These fruit brandies are traditionally un-aged to maintain the wonderful intensity of the fruit. Apple brandies are the exception to this rule. They mature beautifully in French oak barrels, which give them additional depth and complexity. The heart of Clear Creek’s product line is our fruit brandies, which are all made according to techniques traditionally used in Europe. We use only pure, whole Pacific Northwest grown fruit.
