This special spirit is a must try for everyone who set their foot in Hungary \u2013 but it\u2019s important that you do that at a venue worthy for our national liquor.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The main difference that sets p\u00e1linka apart from other alcoholic beverages like whiskey and vodka is that it\u2019s made not from grain, but from 100% real fruits, and contains no additives other than crystal clear water.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-328944\" src=\"https:\/\/funzine.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/shop_V5I0193-e1550154285708.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" \/><\/p>\n<p>For this reason, even though in general p\u00e1linka has an alcoholic content of 40% (and stronger versions are not uncommon), it\u2019s not the alcohol, but more the fruity notes and unique aromas that dominate its taste.<\/p>\n<p>The most common varieties of p\u00e1linka are plum, apricot and pear, but cherry and grape are also common, while you can also find p\u00e1linka made from quince, wild cherry, raspberry, or sloe.<\/p>\n<h4>For a litre of raspberry p\u00e1linka you\u2019ll need 22 kg of the fruit, while only 8 kg apricots suffice for making a bottle.<\/h4>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-328946\" src=\"https:\/\/funzine.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/food_V5I0221-e1550154418751.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" \/><\/p>\n<p>P\u00e1linka is a drink to be cherished. You don\u2019t down it like a shot, but consume it slowly, sip-by-sip, savouring it, so that its aromas may have time to unfold. If you\u2019ve finally decided to give p\u00e1linka a go, it\u2019s best if you have your first taste somewhere that has its own staff of p\u00e1linka experts, ensuring that your first encounter with the Hungarian fruit brandy will be a memorable experience. To that end, we recommend that you visit P\u00e1linka Museum Shop Bar, located under 20 Kir\u00e1ly utca, right in the heart of the Party District. Here you can learn about the exciting history of the spirit through an interactive exhibition, complete with digital tools, make your own distillate, and taste or buy a variety of p\u00e1linka specialties.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-328957\" src=\"https:\/\/funzine.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/shop_VI0122-0124-e1550154449274.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1200\" height=\"543\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Since p\u00e1linka is made from a range of fruits, we encourage you to sample more than one kind. It\u2019s actually one of the biggest advantages p\u00e1linka has over other internationally renowned spirits: there are so many flavours of p\u00e1linka that it\u2019s virtually impossible that you won\u2019t find a variety suited for your liking. Get a bottle of p\u00e1linka as a gift to your friends or family so that they, too, can learn what the Hungarian spirit is all about!<\/p>\n<p>For mor information click <a href=\"https:\/\/palinkabudapest.com\/#home\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>P\u00e1linka is Hungary\u2019s most prized beverage: a distilled drink prepared from the most delicious<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":13,"featured_media":328944,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"wprm-recipe-roundup-name":"","wprm-recipe-roundup-description":"","ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1254],"tags":[759,11515],"post_places":[],"class_list":["post-328959","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-gastro","tag-palinka-en","tag-spirit"],"acf":{"connected_places":null,"del_image":""},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>P\u00e1linka - A Must Try Hungarian Spirit<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"This special spirit is a must try for everyone who set their foot in Hungary \u2013 but it\u2019s important that you do that at a venue worthy for our national liquor.\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/funzine.hu\/en\/2019\/02\/15\/gastro\/palinka-a-must-try-hungarian-spirit\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"P\u00e1linka - A Must Try Hungarian Spirit\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"This special spirit is a must try for everyone who set their foot in Hungary \u2013 but it\u2019s important that you do that at a venue worthy for our national liquor.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/funzine.hu\/en\/2019\/02\/15\/gastro\/palinka-a-must-try-hungarian-spirit\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Funzine\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:publisher\" content=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/funzine\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2019-02-15T04:00:48+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/funzine.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/shop_V5I0193-e1550154285708.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"1200\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"800\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Tegdes P\u00e9ter\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:creator\" content=\"@funzine\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:site\" content=\"@funzine\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Tegdes P\u00e9ter\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"2 minutes\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"NewsArticle\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/funzine.hu\/en\/2019\/02\/15\/gastro\/palinka-a-must-try-hungarian-spirit\/#article\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/funzine.hu\/en\/2019\/02\/15\/gastro\/palinka-a-must-try-hungarian-spirit\/\"},\"author\":{\"name\":\"Tegdes P\u00e9ter\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/funzine.hu\/#\/schema\/person\/872f22f278a05f2c2841360035876932\"},\"headline\":\"P\u00e1linka &#8211;
