Pronounced "door-chol," San Antonio's Dorćol Distilling Co was founded in 2013 by Chris Mobley and Boyan Kalusevic, two friends who met in college 10 years prior. Their first spirit is Kinsman Apricot Rakia, an unaged brandy made from de-pitted, de-stemmed Serbian apricots. After double-distillation in a custom-built 400 L., direct-flame copper pot-still from Belgrade, the brandy is chill-filtered then bottled at 42% ABV.

Tasting Notes

"Apricots in cream greet the nose--think nostalgic Dreamsicle with apricot replacing the orange. The palate is clean, sharp and scintillating with dried fruit, now more tropical, dominating. A lingering creaminess persists into a finish that's dry and persistent.Good sipped straight yet very versatile in cocktails."
