Skenderbeu Konjak Brandy is a liquor made of ripe grapes alcohol. When grapes grow ripe, they go under the process of fermentation at the controlled temperature, after which the wine of specific characteristics is obtained. Wine is then transferred into copper vessels, in which it is distilled until becoming crystal clear alcohol of the highest quality. The alcohol obtained in this way grows old for three years in the oak barrels, and that kind of wood gives this brandy a unique flavor which makes it so exceptional.
