Bodegas Gerardo Mendez, a renowned producer in Galicia, Spain, crafts the Do Ferreiro Orujo de Galicia, a traditional Spanish spirit known as orujo. This spirit is distilled from the pomace of grapes, a byproduct of winemaking, using a traditional copper pot still. The result is a clear, potent spirit with an ABV typically around 40%. It boasts a robust flavor profile with notes of fresh herbs, citrus, and a hint of anise, reflecting the unique terroir of Galicia. Orujo is often enjoyed as a digestif, sipped neat or used in cocktails to add a distinctive Spanish flair.
