About Borovička Slovenská
Borovička Slovenská is ST. NICOLAUS' juniper spirit, made from juniper berry distillate blended with fine spirit alcohol in the tradition of borovička distilling in the Liptov region, one of the first alcoholic beverages produced there. Borovička as a style dates to the 16th century and is made by slowly distilling juniper berries; the company sells its Klasik expression at 40% ABV in 1-litre bottles as one of its everyday, mass-market spirits alongside its vodka.
