In this episode of the podcast, I delve into one of Bosnia's cherished traditions, the art of making rakija. Join me as I recount a delightful journey to Slatina with Tamara, where we witnessed the age-old process of distilling pear rakija at her cousin's orchard. The visit, filled with breathtaking views, vibrant community spirit, and the rich aroma of wood smoke and fruit, highlights the cultural significance and communal effort involved in rakija making. This time-honoured tradition not only produces a beloved spirit but also strengthens bonds and preserves connections to the land.
