Harvesting the best possible

Petals are picked and put into special fishnet bags to ensure high air circulation until they are delivered to distillery.
Special parties are kept in cooler containers until delivery for upmost freshness and top yield ratio.
Managing traceability
Erçetin innovates to follow every step of the cultivation and production stages for more than 3 decades.
Every harvest area is carefully related to its yield. Samples are analyzed in high resolution to trace the results of agricultural improvements and sustainability studies.
IFF-LMR partnership powered-up the traceability of Erçetin products with global expertise and experience.
