DISTILLATION

The creation of brandy begins with a long process of distillation. KVINT distillers strictly follow the traditional cognac production method, enabling to preserve all essential oils in alcohol and to achieve the right concentration of them. The wine is distilled in Alambic pot-stills in two stages. At first stage you obtain the basic raw spirit, the so-called “brouillis” with alcoholic strength 29-32%. After the second stage, known as “la bonne chauffe” (or good heating) the resultant product contains 62-70% of alcohol. The full cycle takes almost whole day. Only after the first-stage distillation the volume of liquid is reduced 9 times.

AGING

The shortest ageing time of KVINT spirits for this kind of beverage is 1 year. The best wood to keep eaux-de-vie spirit in is the Limousine oak. From the end of the last century KVINT prefers to buy the barrels made from 80-year-old oaks grown in Limousine region in central France. Multitude of grape varieties, favorable conditions of ageing including temperature control, humidity, competently chosen barrels and daily care – any of these components contribute to the formation of taste accents and aromatic nuances.


BLENDING

The final step that turns spirits into brandy is blending. This process is a gradual mixing of the certain ratio of eaux-de-vie aged for 1-3 years in oak barrels, wine-distilled spirits, specially treated water, syrup and oak essence.

REST

The freshly prepared blend of brandy is characterized by disbalanced bouquet and taste, due to disturbance of equilibrium of the components. To avoid this, every blended brandy is put for rest into big casks, this process lasts for not less than 30 days.

COLD TREATMENT

Cold treatment usually takes place before bottling. Brandy is chilled at the temperature from –10°С to –15°С and kept in tanks for 7-10 days, depending on the blend of beverage, then follows filtration at the same temperature as one of cold treatment. During the whole period of treatment the temperature is controlled automatically. The procedure of cold treatment enables us to guarantee that brandy will stay clear and stable in the bottle, if the conditions of storage are observed.

CONTROL FILTRATION

After cold treatment brandies undergo control filtration for giving them additional brilliance and crystalline clarity.
