Some herbs, such as thyme, rosemary, savory & sage are actually harvested in Forcalquier. The exact place & date of the harvest varies each year. However, some always come from the same area, such as verbena citronella from Forcalquier. Other items, including the spices, of course, arrive from more distant lands; China may supply the star anise, or the licorice may come from Syria. They extract the aromatic principles from the harvested & dried herbs. We let them macerate in alcohol. The temperature, time & alcohol content yield the desired taste. The infusion is ended & extraction takes place. In our press, we separate the infused liquid from the herb part to obtain the last juice to be added to the infusion. After the herbs are pressed, they still contain many aromas & essences. By distilling them in our old still, we extract them. Some infusions are also distilled to give them greater finesse. Mixing the infusions & distillates produces the flavoured spirit. This flavoured spirit, a product of each of the herbs & spices, is what they need to assemble the product. & this is the most delicate part of the process. The volume of the infusions varies according to temperature, so the infusions are weighed as opposed to measured. Their aromatic characteristics can vary also according to harvest. The dosage of anethole & sugar are also crucial. To keep the product's qualities constant, it is essential for a taster to analyze & taste the product at every stage of production. Final assembly, which must be perfectly executed, creates this symphony of aromas & flavours. Next there are the final inspections followed by the final tasting. A taster directs this final phase. The last procedure is bottling. ...

Distilleries Provence - RinQuinQuin A La Peche 75cl Bottle

The term RinQuinQuin was originally a generic word. In the Provencal language it means invigorating drink (from the verb requinquilhar: to cheer up). People used to give names to their favourite aperitifs or digestifs. Today, it is becoming synonymous with 'peach wine'. This aperitif has a base made of white wine, alcohol, infusions of peaches, peach tree leaves and sugar. Peach trees: originally found in Persia, peach trees came to Provence during the Roman era. Long ago, in Provence, peach trees were often seen as having therapeutic properties, something that has been totally forgotten today. The leaves, blossoms, stones and gum from peach trees were used as medicine. The fruit is harvested when ripe. They select several varieties of peaches, including the following three: -
Cardinal peaches, with their orange-red skin and pale yellow, juicy meat. - Coronet peaches are white, juicy and flavourful. - Junegold peaches have orange-yellow skin and light yellow and tasty meat. The leaves are harvested from the peach trees sometime in September. The peaches and leaves are macerated separately in alcohol and wine in order to extract the parts that are soluble. At the end of the required maceration period (six months to one year), the infusions that are obtained are separated into two parts. The liquid part is added to the white wine. The solid part is distilled and then added. RinQuinQuin aperitif should be enjoyed straight up, chilled, and with ice cubes if you prefer. RinQuinQuin goes well with foie gras. It may also be used to flavour fruit salads (1
tablespoon; berries are suggested).
