Egiazki Liqueurs / Digestives / Brandy / Rum in Saint-Pée-sur-Nivelle

In 2013, Camille and Benjamin Fourt Arteaga, young twins from Saint-Pée-sur-Nivelle in the Basque Country, decided to develop a Artisanal and local Patxaran .

Coming from agricultural and agrifood training (BTS and Engineering School) and being very attached to their culture, they were keen to work with a product from the Basque region. Their choice turned towards liqueurs and in particular the emblematic Patxaran from the Basque Country.

In 2014 EGIAZKI or "Le Véritable" in Basque was created and it took over a year to find the perfect Patxaran recipe.

The two enthusiasts plant 4ha of blackthorn trees on the heights of their village and, in December 2015, Patxaran EGIAZKI is marketed for the first time.
They are now specialists in Basque liqueur and offer Menta, Manzana, Patxaka and Jinkoa. Being keen to develop their offer, they have also created a range of spirits with Gin Arana, Pastis Odeia and soon Bidaia rum.

EGIAZKI has chosen to use only local ingredients, preferably ORGANIC.
EGIAZKI is 100% natural and contains no artificial colors or flavors. Everything is made in an artisanal way: the liqueurs are all made, put in vats, bottled, labeled and corked in Saint-Pée ​​sur Nivelle.

PATXARAN:

Patxaran, EGIAZKI's flagship product, is a Basque liqueur made from the maceration of wild sloes in aniseed alcohol known as anisette.
This is an artisanal patxaran, with character and quality. Consumed both as a digestive and as an aperitif, its flavor is pleasant and has a good length in the mouth. Less sweet and aniseed than its competitors, Patxaran EGIAZKI was developed to bring out the taste of wild sloes. The anisette is handcrafted in the greatest secrecy of its creators, making EGIAZKI a unique Patxaran.

Patxaran EGIAZKI has become the main producer in the North Basque Country (French) and its rather pink color is clearly different from the rather purple Spanish Patxaran.

PATXAKA:

Patxaka is a liqueur made from wild Basque apples: Anisa and Mamula. These are hardy apples that grow naturally in the Basque mountains. Harvested by hand, they are then macerated in homemade anisette.

Patxaka has a strong taste and has the character of the apples that compose it. Patxaka EGIAZKI is a rare, ancestral and little known product in the Basque Country. It is consumed as much as an aperitif than as a digestive.

MANZANA:

A traditional Basque manzana recipe, we find in EGIAZKI manzana the great freshness of green apple and a harmony of flavors that combine for a unique aperitif. This Manzana is delicate, not very sweet and the taste of the fruit prevails.

EGIAZKI COOKIES:

Egiazki Biscuits are handcrafted in Saint-Pée-sur-Nivelle. These are EGIAZKI Patxaran cookies. We find the taste of Patxaran with sweet notes of sloes and anise. Biscuits to taste alone, accompanied by a coffee or an Egiazki liqueur!

MENTA:

Menta Egiazki is a fresh peppermint liqueur, type "peppermint". Our recipe is made from the natural essence of spearmint and peppermint leaves obtained by distillation. Qualifying the Menta as "fresh" borders on understatement, but it is also light, sweet with subtle spices.

JINKOA:

Jinkoa Egiazki is a liqueur from Feijoa (Brazilian guava).
This changes from the traditional Patxaran and yet this exotic fruit is produced in Saint-Pée-sur-Nivelle making Jinkoa, a totally local product.
Jinkoa liqueur is sweet and syrupy with a very fruity first attack. The latest creation in the Egiazki liquor range, it is causing a sensation for its originality and its astonishing taste!

GIN ARANA:

To diversify, EGIAZKI decided to develop its range by creating a Gin made from distilled wild sloes. A different way of using the fruit that made EGIAZKI so successful!
Arana is a delicious gin that seduces with its finesse and floral notes. Delicate and not very bitter, it will appeal to the greatest number!

PASTIS ODEIA:

EGIAZKI has embarked on the challenge of creating the first Basque pastis!
With a simple recipe based on 100% natural local products, this pastis surprises with its very light color because there is no addition of caramel.
It is a pastis of great sweetness, subtle and not very sweet.
