yes you can set it on fire, thats actually how we test it while distilling. the alcohol percentage drops while distilling, and when it gets low enough that you cant set it on fire anymore, we stop the process

I may be wrong, but my opinion is, that really good slivovice doesn´t get to shops. It is used internally by people making it, gifted to friends or sold to people around you.

[@markucije]

Checkoslovakia doesn't exist anymore... and Shlivovitz is Serbian word Šljivovica from Šljiva which means plum. There are two types of this brandy. Meka - which means Soft (~22.5% of alcohol ) and Prepecenica - lets translate it as Overfryed (45% vol). And yes you can make plum brandy anywhere but Šljivovica only in Serbia. Even Faith No More bass player imports it from Serbia to USA. Check out his Yebiga brand..

[@Kilinho98]

Slivka is plum in Moravian accent, too

[@Gasmaska69]

Its recognized by the EU from 2007 onwards as a Serbian brand, Šljivovica is serbian national drink, plums are serbian national fruit, and serbia is the 5th producer of plums in the WORLD, with fertile land just the size of new york.
