Zlatni TOK 15
Carefully chosen plum varieties of Požegača, Crvena ranka, Čačanska rodna and Čačanska lepotica make Zlatni Tok 15. We know a true quality is rare and it takes time. In that manner we created a slivovitza/ brandy which acquired its quality through the 15 years of aging. It took the time of 10 years in the barrels and 5 more in the casks. That is why it is limited to only 500 bottles a year. A pure pearl in the sea of Serbian rakijas surfaced with much competence, care and patience. This brandy is a luxury transfused into divine, sophisticated spirit. The colors of dark amber like a hidden talisman of hedonism leave an impression of elegance in a glass. Through the well-shaped harmony and wood-ennobled taste, Zlatni Tok 15 always takes you further than you planned on going. The confirmation of the high-quality of this exceptional brandy is that it received the award for rakija/brandy of the year in 2017.

About Distillery
The story of the TOK distillery started in the 1970s by its owner and founder, Veroljub Ljuba Urošević. The magic was created on an estate on the Goč mountain, where a young engineer of alcoholic beverage technology planted the first plum orchard. This story has got no legends, myths or exaggeration. Everything was and is right now exactly as it is supposed to be. The family manufacture has become a production of the limited series of premium brandy . Just like it is the case with every true, family story, the distillery is nowdays led by its founder and his sons who are technology experts in the field of brandy production.
For the last half century, the notion of Plum brandy/Šljivovica as an authentic product of Serbia has unjustifiably fallen from the throne of high-quality alcoholic beverages. Our mission is to put this queen of all spirits back on the throne.
