Icon of the Massenez Brand, the William Pear eau de vie “Prisoner Pear” captivates with its olfactory and gustative qualities and the pear-shaped bottle with a whole pear inside.
The bottle is simply attached to the pear tree in flower… so the fruit develops inside the bottle. When it ripens, the fruit and the bottle are carefully detached.
G.E. Massenez uses only choice, ripe, hand-picked fruit. Massenez eaux de vie are double distilled, thus intensifying the fruit character, the “heart”, in the resulting distillate. Approximately 20 pounds of fruit is required to produce one bottle of eau-de-vie. The final product is an impeccably clean, perfectly clear eighty-proof brandy, with a magnificent bouquet and intense taste of fruit.
