twice-distilled plum brandy Explanation: There is no literal term for the word Ţuică , its use depends on region. But technically this is a simple classification: Ţuică = generic term for distilled alcoholic beverage Palincă = thrice-distilled plum brandy ***Horincă = twice-distilled plum brandy*** Jinars = twice-distilled plum brandy (Transylvania - Cluj) Făţată = the strongest brand, twice-distilled http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ţuică Sau double-distilled plum brandy: In Maramures, a forested northwestern corner of Romania surrounded by the Carpathian mountains, the drink of choice is ***horinca—a double-distilled plum brandy*** prized for its clarity and its 80-proof wallop. http://www.facebook.com/note.php?note_id=10150172246130578 |
