The chateau distillery was founded by Baron František Hildprandt in 1885, opposite his water castle in Blatná. However, his family’s journey followed the motto written in their family’s coat of arms: “over the obstacles to glory”. In the middle of the 20th century, the Hildprandt family lost all their property and were forced to leave Bohemia. They lived in Ethiopia for some time, later on in Germany and it was only after the Velvet Revolution in 1990 that the Hildprandt family could return to Blatná. We all realize that the journey to success is complicated and full of obstacles, as is the fate of the Hidprandt family. That is why we would like people to enjoy the extraordinary beverage of exceptionally delicate taste, not only during special occasions, but also to connect the baron Hildprandt beverage with success.
Baron Hildprandt fruit distillates are made from South Bohemian high-quality fruit. Produced in Blatná historic distillery under the supervision of master distiller Václav Šitner, they are made by combining 3=times distilled one year old distillate, alcohol, water and dried fruit extracts. The resulting blend is aged for 2-3 months in barrels.

Two-stage pot distillation is carried out four times. This process reduces hydrocarbon content of the fluid. The resulting product is clean and soft, you will recognize it as soon as you taste it. Consequently, the distillate matures for 1 year in tanks. And it is worth noting that all is carried out under the supervision of master distiller Václav Šitner.
Baron Hildprandt 50% is made from South Bohemian fruits. Fruit tree varieties have been carefully chosen to get an exceptional and well-balanced taste. After fermentation, the liquid is distilled three times, to be subsequently put to tanks to mature there for one year. The outcome is a typical South Bohemian distillate with a particular taste, when mixed with water from our wells, its alcohol content is 50% ABV.
Usually, the best things are limited. This holds true also for our Baron Hildprandt limited edition vintage fruit spirits from personal supplies of master distiller Václav Šitner. Once these barrels are sold out, they will be no longer available. Treat yourselves with old fruit spirits from Blatná Castle Distillery Master Václav Šitner.
