Franz Pelinkovac Gift Box is more than a bottle – it is a tribute to heritage, craftsmanship and a remarkable story rescued from history. Inspired by early 19th-century records connected to the French occupation and a military hospital in Jastrebarsko, this wormwood-based herbal liqueur brings the past back into the present in an elegant gift-ready form.
The story begins with Franz Wagner, a local pharmacist who, according to the writings, prepared a herbal liqueur through a long and carefully guided process of infusion and maceration. Nearly two centuries later, the original notes were found during the renovation of Wagner’s house and entrusted to the Šoškić family, known for their longstanding tradition of crafting outstanding spirits and liqueurs.
Revived by skilled master distillers, Franz Pelinkovac delivers an exceptional harmony of bitterness, gentle sweetness and layered herbal complexity. Its refined character makes it a confident choice for a wide range of palates and occasions.
Presented in a gift box, it becomes an elevated option for celebrations, business gifting and meaningful moments where story and quality matter. Serve it chilled at 8-10° C and let its herbal depth unfold slowly in the glass.
Whether you gift it or enjoy it yourself, Franz Pelinkovac Gift Box offers authenticity, elegance and a memorable drinking experience rooted in history.
