Introducing the Classic 1.5 liter Alquitara, an alembic composed of three essential parts: the boiler, the condenser or cap, and the cooler.
This alquitara is manufactured in two pieces, the boiler and the condenser-cooler. The Classic Alquitara offers slow distillation that results in a highly aromatic and higher alcohol content distillate.
With a capacity of 1.5 liters, it has a yield of 10-15% of its capacity, which equates to obtaining between 150 and 225 ml per distillation.
Made of 0.7 mm copper sheet, the alquitara features a hammered finish, handles and nuts in bright brass, and riveted joints.

In summary, the Classic Alquitara is our oldest model and is specifically designed for alcoholic distillations. Its difference lies in the cooler being part of the condenser and located at the top, unlike most alembics where the cooler is separate from the boiler and condenser.
