Due to the fact that Vizovice’s climate is exceptionally suitable for fruit trees, especially plums, slivovitz started being produced around the mid-18th century. Production boomed in the latter half of the 19th century, when state subsidies catapulted slivovitz to prominence. The RUDOLF JELÍNEK company also dates to this period. Slivovitz (plum brandy) is produced from fully matured fruit grown in the plum regions of Bohemia. This triple distilled product, made from our own recipe, ranks among premium quality alcoholic beverages, worldwide.
