The highlands
In the high mountains of the northwest, autumn comes early and the nights are cold. The fruit is small, ripens slowly, and has thick, tart skins.

The harvest
The fruit comes in over a few weeks in late autumn. Every bottle’s tag carries the year its batch was picked.

Steeping
The fruit is packed into glass jars, covered with liquor and sealed. One, three or five years later it is drawn off and bottled.
The northwest · September to November




Three rules
Green or bruised fruit is sorted out before steeping.
Every bottle carries a tag with its autumn batch and years of steeping.
Nothing is bottled before its years are up.
