The Šumadija region, situated in the heart of Serbia, is often regarded as one of the hidden gems of brandy production. Nestled in a rolling and verdant landscape, Šumadija benefits from a continental climate ideal for the cultivation of various fruits, such as plums, pears, and apples. These fruits are the essential ingredients for one of the most cherished local specialities: rakija, a fruit brandy with a distinctive flavour.
Historically, the Šumadija region has been at the centre of the age-old craft of distillation, preserving traditional methods while embracing modern techniques to enhance product quality. There are numerous family-run and artisanal distilleries, each house having its own secrets and variations, creating a rich diversity of flavours.
