Laval Pelinkovac Gift Set – 0.7L Herbal Liqueur with 2 Glasses in a Wooden Box

Laval Pelinkovac Gift Set: A Tribute to the History and Spirit of Kvarner

The Laval Pelinkovac Gift Set (0.7L) with two glasses in a handcrafted wooden box was designed as more than just a gift—it is a liquid story of our region. In this set, we have woven the very essence of Kvarner, inspired by the life and legacy of Count Laval Nugent, the last Lord of Trsat Castle and a man who deeply indebted our history. With this premium gift set, we pay tribute to the people, the traditions, and the unbreakable bond between nature and history that makes Rijeka and its surroundings truly unique.

When we created this set, our goal was to offer a complete, multisensory experience. It is not just about a bottle of premium liqueur; it is about the moment you open the handcrafted wooden box, feel the natural texture, smell the scent of the wood, and see the two elegant glasses ready for a toast. This is a gift that is not easily forgotten.

From “Mali Zmaj” to Laval: The Evolution of Our Brand

Many of our loyal customers still fondly remember Mali Zmaj (The Little Dragon), our very first pelinkovac that laid the foundation for our distillery. Although it was deeply loved, we decided to take a step further into the premium spirits segment. If you are curious about this journey and how our “Mali Zmaj” evolved into Laval Pelinkovac, we invite you to read our chronicle about the creation of the identity you know today. Laval inherited the heart and soul of the “Dragon” but elevated it to a new level of elegance, worthy of its namesake, the noble Count of Trsat. This commitment to constant refinement is the reason why this Laval Pelinkovac Gift Set is our most representative product today.

Our Unique Recipe: A Harmony of Strength and Elegance

Laval Pelinkovac is far from your typical bitter liqueur. We have crafted it as an aromatic liqueur that balances the robustness of traditional wormwood with the sophistication of a modern palate in every single drop. Our secret lies in patience and the meticulous selection of ingredients, all of which undergo rigorous quality control within our family-run distillery.

What makes our pelinkovac stand out

• Refined wormwood bitterness: Wormwood (Artemisia absinthium) is the heart of our recipe. It delivers that distinctive, deep bitterness that liqueur lovers appreciate, but we’ve crafted it with elegance to ensure it remains smooth and never overpowering.
• Natural citrus freshness: To achieve perfect balance, we enrich our pelinkovac with natural orange and lemon essences. These citrus notes lift the entire flavour profile, adding a refreshing touch that harmonises beautifully with the herbal bitterness.
• Aromatic herbal composition: Alongside wormwood and citrus, we use a carefully selected blend of wild herbs that define the character of our region. This creates a harmonious flavour profile that lingers pleasantly on the palate, delivering a well-rounded and memorable herbal liqueur experience.

What’s included in this premium gift set

We designed this set with you and your loved ones in mind. Our goal was to create a gift that is ready to present immediately – no extra wrapping or packaging needed. Inside this carefully crafted box, you will find:

1. A bottle of Laval Pelinkovac (0.7L): Our signature bottle, inspired by the history of Trsat and Count Nugent, contains a herbal liqueur that has won over many palates with its distinctive flavour and balance.
2. Two branded glasses: Designed specifically for enjoying pelinkovac, these glasses enhance the tasting experience by allowing the aromas to fully develop with every sip.
3. Elegant wooden gift box: Each box is crafted with precision and care. It is not just packaging, but a lasting piece that highlights the premium nature of the product and remains as a keepsake of a special moment.

Our recommendations for perfect serving

We want you to enjoy our pelinkovac in the best possible way. Laval pelinkovac is a versatile herbal liqueur, and here are a few of our favourite ways to serve it:

Classic Kvarner digestif

Best served well chilled after a meal. The low temperature enhances the herbal clarity, while the bitterness supports digestion. Serve it in the included branded glasses.

Laval on the Rocks

Add 2–3 ice cubes and a slice of fresh orange. The orange unlocks the citrus notes in the recipe, creating a refreshing drink perfect for warm days or relaxed evenings.

Modern Laval & Tonic

For a longer drink, mix Laval pelinkovac with a premium tonic and a few drops of fresh lemon juice. This modern variation highlights the smoothness and versatility of this herbal liqueur.
