The apricots from Vesuvius, among the most typical productions in the territory of Vesuvius (more than fourty ecotypes are present), ripen from the middle of June to the end of July. These apricots are distinguished by sweetness and aroma thanks to the natural potassium richness of the volcanic soils, a mineral being a decisive factor for their extraordinary tastiness. The Apricot spirit by casaBarone is obtained by the distillation of one among the most valuable apricot varieties: Pellecchiella. The full-ripe fruits are stoned and pressed to obtain a pulpy liquid that undergoes a controlled fermentation for about seven to ten days. The result is a spirit that leaves unchanged the aroma and the extraordinary perfume of this apricot variety.
