Once perfectly grown, the bottle is detached, thoroughly rinsed, and gradually infused with Eau de Vie de Poire William. Through a meticulous process of filling and emptying, the fruit slowly absorbs the spirit until it is completely saturated. Finally, the bottle is filled once more with this elegant Williams pear brandy, ensuring the fruit remains suspended in pristine condition without absorbing further liquid.
Briottet Eau de Vie Poire Emprisonnée
A marvel of patience, tradition, and craftsmanship, Briottet Eau de Vie Poire Emprisonnée is one of the most captivating spirits in the Briottet collection. The question every connoisseur asks—how does the pear get into the bottle?—is answered with an extraordinary method that combines nature’s rhythm with human ingenuity. In the spring, when the pear is still tiny, the bottle is carefully placed over the young fruit on the tree, secured neck-down to prevent rainwater from entering. Over the months, the pear matures inside the bottle, ripening naturally under close supervision.
