Yet, capturing its essence in the bottle presents all sorts of challenges. For one, the stones of the peach can be toxic to humans. Second, the pectin can breakdown to methanol, another toxin, intense and solvent, with a similar boiling point to ethanol making it easy to concentrate but difficult to separate. Separation of the juice from the pectin and the stone is arduous and ultimately wasteful. So this year, to circumvent the challenges we've faced head on in the past, we took a different route.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOur beloved local orchard and farm, Briermere, made available to us 1,000 lbs of ‘seconds’ peaches. Freshly picked but lightly blemished in a way that shortens their potential shelf life at the stand. And so, it brought them into the distillery. Covered them in water and boiled them, yielding a sweet, bright and incredibly aromatic peach juice. Dropped the temperature and added a bit of champagne yeast. We fermented it to an off-dry peach wine before fortifying it with the peach leaf distillate.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Flask","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48544089080025,"sku":"210000048429","price":11.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0350\/4717\/8372\/files\/Untitled_6_0c06063b-3538-4727-a949-2f4a87c34c97.png?v=1778988150","url":"https:\/\/flaskfinewines.com\/products\/matchbook-distillery-day-trip-after-dark-amaro-187ml","provider":"Flask","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
