Origin and tradition:
Čačanska Lepotica is a quality plum variety that was developed at the Research Institute of Fruit Growing in Čačak, Serbia. This variety is valued for its quality and attractive appearance, making it a popular choice not only in Serbia but also throughout Europe.

They have a dark blue skin colour complemented by intense skinning, which gives them a distinctly attractive appearance. This variety is considered to be a semi-plum, with a slightly sweet and slightly aromatic taste, which is particularly pronounced when grown in warm climates. These plums are usually harvested in the second decade of August, when the fruit reaches optimum ripeness and sugar content. Thanks to its distinctive taste and beautiful appearance, Čačanská Lepotica is very popular throughout Europe.

About R.Jelinek Plum Orchards:
In the heart of Moravia, precisely in and around Vizovice, there is a vast area of plum orchards. In total, R.Jelínek owns 84 hectares of land, sixty hectares of which are used directly in Těchlov and on Janova Hora. Their growing efforts are constantly expanding, not only in these traditional locations, but also in new areas - in Ludkovice near Luhačovice, Lípa nad Dřevnicí and in the idyllic village of Kostelany.
The beginning of planting our own plum orchards dates back to 2003, when the first trees were planted in Těchlov. Today, the area is home to thousands of plum trees divided into five zones: Nade Dvorem, Nad Statkem, Dolní Menšík, U Studny and U Střelnice. In total, there are more than 23 000 trees of different plum varieties.
Nine varieties have been selected for the production of Vizovice plum brandy, which have proved themselves most successful in these conditions. These are Čačanská lepotica, Stanley, Gabrovská, TopTaste, Presenta, Valjevka, Haganta, Katinka and Čačanská rodná. These varieties have been carefully selected for their specific characteristics, which contribute to the unique character of our plum brandy.
The selection of the best slivovitz takes place every year during the November slaughter, where the Friends of Jelínk's Plum brandy Society evaluates spirits from different varieties. Čačanská Lepotica was chosen for its excellence in 2019 and was subsequently selected for the limited production, which traditionally starts in March, two calendar years after the harvest.
Try R.Jelínek Vizovická Plum brandy 2019 Čačanská Lepotica as a representation of the traditional Czech distilling art and taste the taste that is the result of careful selection and commitment to maintaining high quality.
