KLEKA is a traditional Serbian klekovača—a juniper spirit made from plum rakija, wild juniper, and mountain spring water. Unlike gin made from neutral alcohol, KLEKA begins with fruit. Wild juniper macerates for one month in plum distillate before being redistilled with it. Only the heart cut is retained, and the finished spirit rests for at least six months before bottling. The result is a dry botanical spirit with integrated juniper, plum, and subtle spice.

This sljivovica is a natural in Martinis, Negronis, Collinses, highballs, and tonic serves. It offers all of the functional familiarity of gin, but its plum-distillate base gives it fruit, texture, and a clear Serbian origin. To experience its full character, we suggest trying it neat and slightly chilled, around 10°C. As with all of our products, Kleka is all natural, with no added sugar, flavoring, extracts or coloring of any kind.
