Distillerie Morand – “Williamine” Pear Liqueur

This high quality ‘Eau-de-Vie’ with pears from the Canton of Valais, has a typical fruity note in the nose a rich, complex taste, and is well balanced. 12 kg of the best regional Williams pears are used for producing 1 liter of Williamine.

Poire Williams – An exceptional fruit. The fine flesh of the Williams pear from the Valais conceals unique aromas that are fully enhanced in the Williamine. Williams pears come exclusively from the Canton of Valais, the fruit's favorite land. When ripe, the pears are sorted by hand, crushed and then fermented before being distilled.

Thanks to its intense and fruity flavor, the Williamine is ideally enjoyed as a digestif, at room temperature or chilled. Together with tonic or grapefruit juice it makes a perfect long-drink. Also ideal for desserts on a pear sorbet, on a scoop of vanilla ice cream or to highlight a chocolate topping. Excellent also as an ingredient for various cocktails.

Distillerie Morand was established in 1889 in Martigny in the Canton of Valais and produces liquors of the highest quality. From the beginnings there has always been a focus on regionally produced fruits to be used to make the liqueurs. The fruits cellared at the distillery are those offered on the markets. The fruits of the ‘eaux-de-vie’ are fresh and ripe, and are hand-picked on arrival at the distillery. Only fruits of highest quality are processed.
