Strawberry Liqueur made from fresh strawberries, 20% alcohol
Strawberry Liqueur by Olgar Distillery is produced from fresh red strawberries from the Golan Heights. The berries are crushed and pressed, and the production process includes fermentation, double distillation, and the addition of fresh fruit puree.

The liqueur is produced without added flavorings, colorings, or preservatives. No added yeast is used during the fermentation process.
The production process of Strawberry Liqueur
The production process of our liqueurs begins with fresh fruit delivered directly from farmers in the Galilee or the Golan Heights. The fruit is crushed or pressed and placed in oak barrels for fermentation until the fermented base is ready.
The fermentation process lasts from one month in summer to three months in winter and takes place without the addition of yeast.
First distillation
After the first fermentation is completed, the mixture is distilled by heating it in large tanks. During this process, alcohol vapors are formed, condensed into droplets, and collected as a liquid.
After the first distillation, the resulting distillate is returned to the barrel for an additional one or two months.
Second distillation and dilution
After the period in the barrel, the mixture undergoes a second distillation, during which the alcohol is further purified and a base distillate is produced.
The resulting base distillate is diluted with mineral water using the osmosis method in order to reduce the alcohol level to between 20% and 30% at this stage of the production process.
This range refers to an intermediate stage of production. The finished Strawberry Liqueur contains 20% alcohol.
Adding fresh strawberries
Another portion of fresh fruit mixture is added to the diluted drink. In some cases, natural fruit sugar is also added, followed by an additional fermentation period of approximately four months.
In the production of Strawberry Liqueur, fresh strawberry puree and natural fruit sugar are added to enhance the fruity aroma and sweet strawberry flavor.
