Our Brandies: Crafted from Selected Grape Varieties with Love

Our Brandies: Crafted from Selected Grape Varieties with Love

Just before the start of the weekend, the team at kajak.mk would like to introduce you to the Ristić family from the village of Timjanik, Negotino. Proud owners of the registered distillery Slogan, located in the village's outskirts.

The Vardar region, with an excellent geographical location, is ideal for their vineyards that stretch across 30,000 square meters. 'Selected grape varieties, which we transform into our rakijas with a lot of love,' say the owners.


The Ristić family, working hard and diligently on their vineyards, produces high-quality homemade products. A testament to the quality are the silver medals they won at the WineVision by Open Balkan fair in Belgrade.


After a busy day, they recommend a glass of grape rakija or mastika. Carefully selected grape varieties, with double distillation of wine distillate, and natural ingredients as an addition, create a perfect blend of a traditional Macedonian drink.

For more information about the products and orders, you can visit our shop with one click HERE.

It was a pleasure to meet a wonderful family that preserves Macedonian traditional drinks and strives to promote them beyond the borders of Macedonia. We wish you many more toasts with a glass of grape rakija or mastika. As the owners would say: "Na zdravje."
