ilar to that employed for the production of cognac and whisky, but I think that high-quality šljivovica is one of the world’s best drinks. “Branko” rakia is my con- tribution to the new generation, because it is the first plum rakia that’s drunk with ice. is is a rakia that has specific aromatic components, with a taste and aroma that are reminiscent of premium bourbons, despite the fact that it is 100% made from plums. e secret ingre- dient is my love for šljivovica and oakwood. “Branko” is a personal signature rakia, but at the Belgrade dis- tillery anyone who’s interested can, with our profes- sional support, make their own “blend”, because our distillery also has a Serbian rakia bank, i.e., the possi- bility for everyone to have their own barrels. For now, many companies, hospitality establishments, individu- als and institutions keep their own barrels at our place, such as the Tourist Organisation of Belgrade and FC Partizan,” explains our interlocutor. However, what’s most important to us is perhaps the fact that all Air Serbia guests can enjoy these fan- tastic rakias. Apricot rakia and traditional, three-year- old plum rakia are served aboard the Serbian nation- al airline’s planes and are characterised by the natural aromas of ripe fruit, as well as a full and consistent flavour. ere’s no doubt that flying with Air Serbia is comfortable, but the flight becomes even better after just one glass of rakia. Enjoy your flight and cheers!
