The Maison Jacoulot, located in Romanèche-Thorins in Burgundy, is an iconic family house recognized for the quality of its spirits and its respect for traditional recipes. For several generations, it has perpetuated artisanal know-how based on the precision of macerations, the rigorous selection of fruits, and a constant search for balance. Jacoulot is committed to producing characterful liqueurs and eaux-de-vie, designed as much for tasting as for gastronomy. The Prunelle de Bourgogne is one of the house's great historical specialties, deeply rooted in the regional heritage.
The Jacoulot Prunelle de Bourgogne Liqueur is made from wild sloes, fruits of the blackthorn, harvested at perfect ripeness. The long maceration allows the extraction of the full aromatic richness of the fruit, preserving its slightly stone-like and spicy character. The blending is carried out with exacting standards to obtain a powerful yet balanced liqueur, where the alcoholic structure supports the fruit without ever overpowering it. With its 40% alcohol content, this prunelle asserts a strong style, faithful to the great traditional liqueurs of Burgundy. A characterful cuvée, crafted without compromise.
On tasting, the Jacoulot Prunelle de Bourgogne offers an intense and elegant expression. The nose reveals deep aromas of stone, almond, black fruits, and slightly spicy notes. On the palate, the attack is frank and warm, supported by a beautiful aromatic concentration and a broad texture. The flavors of prunelle express themselves with depth, accompanied by a fine noble bitterness that brings length and complexity. The finish is persistent, structured, and perfectly balanced. This liqueur is ideally enjoyed neat, as a digestif, but also pairs very well with coffee, dark chocolate, or certain pastries. A great traditional prunelle, powerful, refined, and timeless.
