This is when I learn the following:
When Brits have a glut of fruit - plums, cherries, apples etc - they make jam. Or chutney.
When Hungarians have a glut - they ferment the fruit at home, and then take it to a local distillery, where it is legally and expertly turned into 60% proof spirit…
This is taxed, and there is a limit by volume - but how a wish we had the same civilised system here!
Meanwhile - at least I can toast Hungarian good fortune in some seriously fiery brew.
Cheers!
