Producer’s note
“This unique, natural drink is composed of bitter and aromatic herbs, picked from the high sunny pastures and meadows of Serbia. The extracted elements of these plants have a healing power over the whole body, especially the digestive system. It is known that support the weak, anemic and sick people, those who fall short of acidity in their stomachs or feel the loss of appetite. Fill and drink one small brandy glass approximately half an hour before a meal, once a day.”
Bojan’s Tips
Provocative. I like it a little bit bitter, my stomach expects it. Unusual taste because of medicinal herbs. Tawny colour, optimal density, but strong and bitter, bitter, bitter... I suppose I had to get used to it prior to tasting.
Decent
