OUR DISTILLERY

A modern and new distillery, just opened in 2020, is already in operation in Glitiškės, Vilnius district! Cider and wine are produced from apples in the impressive, historic Jelenski manor house, dating back to 1923, where they are distilled and aged in oak barrels and stainless steel tanks. Two types of globally known apple wine distillate are currently available to taste and purchase in the distillery café: APPLE JACK, PADVAISKAS-SAN, APPLE BRANDY and CALVADOS.
Many famous personalities, film characters and literary heroes are fond of this type of drink. Today, everyone can appreciate the taste and aroma of this legendary drink. It can be consumed neat or in alcoholic cocktails.

ABOUT DISTILLATION EQUIPMENT

Up to 190 varieties of apples are used to make apple wine distillate. The juice is fermented to produce wine, which is used for further distillation. The resulting apple wine is distilled in two impressive distillation equipment. In a state-of-the-art laboratory, all the resulting products are immediately analysed.

Apple wine spirit – clear, unaged, apple-scented, 45% VOL – APPLE JACK , Apple brandy – aged 45% VOL – PADVAISKAS-SAN.

The distillate takes on a distinctive colour as it matures. In contact with air and wood, the strong, clear alcohol slowly takes on a colour ranging from natural amber to dark brown, revealing a subtle and long-lasting flavour. The colour and flavour depend very much on the type of barrel used: oak, mulberry, cherry, chestnut, acacia. The length of ageing is very important.

WHAT MAKES THE DRINK OF ARVYDAS PADVAISKAS DISTILLERY EXCLUSIVE?

The production process involves filtration, separation of the yeast and its nutrients. This produces an exceptionally clean and clear apple wine for distillation. After distillation, an apple-scented strong alcoholic drink is born. Its strength can be reduced later. The technology experts are meticulously able to dilute it with ultra-pure water from the distillery’s own borehole.
