Description
Beet distillate Ferryman 40%
Beets are sown in garden from late March to early June. Ripe vegetables are harvested in September before the first frosts. They are usually up to 8cm in diameter. Due to their intense color, these vegetables are often used as a dye. In cooking, beets are used fresh, boiled or fried, while others squeeze juice or marinate them. Beet distillate is an unusual way to enjoy this vegetable.
Beets are harvested in the Gauja National Park. At first is made beetroot wine, then it is distilled in order to gain the happy Ferryman’s name. Distillate will appeal to lovers of mild flavors and beets, as well as those who like to try new tastes.
This is the only product we offer from beets.
Ferryman story
