Impressed by the vitality of its tree and the juicy-sweet, golden-yellow fruits, the French King René of Anjou brought the fruit, which was later named 'Mirabelle de Nancy', to France in the 15th century. This type of plum, also called yellow greengage, was particularly often cultivated in Lorraine not far from the city of Nancy, to which it owes its name, and from there it came to Germany around 1750. The light-yellow to reddish shining fruits are harvested in late summer from August to mid-September. They should be harvested ripe and crisp, but not too overripe, as they tend to become mealy.

The pears are harvested fully ripe and crushed with a screw pump before the mash is gently distilled during the declining fermentation.

Filtration is classically done using activated carbon. To distill just one liter of this Williams Pear Brandy with 40% vol. alcohol, the distiller processes a full 11 kg of fully ripe Williams pears.

A concentrate can also be obtained from part of the buds, for example, which lends perfumes a special, fruity note. Blackcurrant is the flagship of the berry family in terms of intensity and aroma; even its leaves smell fragrant.

The approximately six hectares of blackcurrants are cultivated by the Läpples exclusively for our manufactory. Jörg Geiger assures his farmer every year that he will purchase all harvested fruits. This allows him to distill this single-variety brandy in years of a large harvest. He needs 50 kilograms of blackcurrants for one liter of pure distillate after rough and fine distillation.

This variety has been known for sparkling wine production since 1760 and received its special name in 1797. The top-grade wine pears are first allowed to \"sweat\" according to an old recipe to develop their full aroma and fragrance. Only then are they gently pressed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter pressing the fully ripe pears, moist pomace remains. A Swabian cannot leave such a thing unattended - so Jörg Geiger dries and ferments this pomace. Only after 1-2 weeks is it finally distilled, knowing that this means sacrificing some alcohol, but fixing the abundance of fruit aromas.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne reason why we love this Champagne Baked Pear brandy so much is its excellent ability to ripen and develop further after years of storage. Jörg Geiger explains it this way: \"We consciously take the time to age our brandies in wooden barrels. For example, in summer temperatures, the rather youthful, harsh components are gently carried away from the brandy by the \"angels.\" In winter, a gentle air exchange takes place again due to the open porosity of the wooden barrel. A gentle, natural way of aging. The loss, also called \"Angels' Share,\" which occurs through the use of a wooden barrel, averages almost 6% per year at Manufaktur Jörg Geiger. Only up to 4% are tax-recognized. Nevertheless, from our point of view, if one thinks long-term, the increase in value of the brandy through storage is significantly higher. Therefore, we have decided to also let the Champagne Baked Pear ripen in barrels.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eManufaktur Jörg Geiger – Brandies from Wild Fruit\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eManufaktur Jörg Geiger is located in the small community of Schlat, eight kilometers southeast of Göppingen, in the middle of the Swabian Alb.
