Oude Quetsche Tilquin à l'Ancienne (Prunes de Namur)
From Lambic.Info
Description
Oude Quetsche Tilquin à L'Ancienne avec Prunes de Namur is a lambic aged on Namur plums. 1 year old lambics made from Boon, Lindemans, Girardin and Catillon worts are blended and aged with 1kg/l of fresh, destoned, skin-on Namur plums for a period of 4 months. This concentrated, fruited lambic blend is then re-blended with 1, 2 and 3 year old lambics to achieve a 250g/l concentration of fruit, before being bottle conditioned at the blendery for a minimum of 3 months. The resulting product is usually noticeably tarter, dryer and less fruity than the version made with Alsace plums, which is sweeter.
