SIHA DESTAROME yeast is a special yeast for the fermentation of noble fruit brandy mashes and produces highly aromatic distillates. It supports the release of aroma components from the fruit during fermentation. Especially Williams pear, kirsch, plum and quince brandies gain appreciably more flavor and elegance. This also applies to noble berry varieties. It features a high temperature tolerance up to at least 59 °F (15 °C) and ferments sufficiently at lower temperatures. It ferments quite slowly but completely even with difficult mashes.
