Nirvana pear brandy produced by the Serbian distillery Zarić has been declared one of the 10 best spirits in the world at the “Concours Mondial de Bruxelles Spirits Selection” competition, writes the magazine “Vino & fino”.
The recognition was awarded in the competition of 1,400 spirits from 84 countries of the world, which competed for a silver, gold, and big gold medal in Brussels.
Gold medals were also won by other Serbian brandies: apricot brandy from the Hubert distillery in 1924 and raspberry brandy from the Obsession of the Zarić distillery. Dunjevača distillery Stara Pesma won a silver medal.
Most samples this year were sent from China, as much as 23 percent. China is followed by France, Mexico, Brazil, and Italy. In the drinks sent, the Chinese brandy baijiu is in the lead, followed by rum and porridge, brandy, and gin. The samples were evaluated by a panel of 60 judges who, this year, due to very difficult intercontinental travel, are mostly from Europe.
