Delord Pruneaux d'Agen à l'Armagnac 70 Cl

For this recipe inherited from a Delord grandmother, the house selects whole, large-calibre genuine Agen prunes, made from the Ente plum of the South-West. They macerate in a liqueur made from that year's Armagnac, chosen for its fruitiness and freshness, a few grams of sugar, and a secret the family keeps to itself. The 70 cl jar, presented in a gift box, is 18% vol. Serve at the end of a meal with a little of the liqueur, or over vanilla ice cream.
