OPYYUM is unique alcoholic drink made from Brandy and Poppy Seeds.

The Pálinka Manufactory of Keresztúr found the best method of utilising poppy and it created from it an alcoholic drink unique in the world, which is the product of merging poppy and pálinka [traditional fruit brandy in Hungary] and which had been named Opyyum. [Based on “Mák”, the Hungarian term for poppy]. After boiling off the fruit brandy, the pálinka, it is steeped on a milled poppy bed, during which process the pálinka absorbs all the contents of poppy together with its fragrance and aroma.

The unique character of Opyyum is due to its numerous components, among others to pálinka that is prepared with the traditional process from excellent quality fruits, as well as poppy, and a number of other things. Its soft, silky taste seduces its consumer on any day of the year. In Hungary people believe that Mácum is also the drink of luckiness, due to the slogan “Drink poppy, and be lucky”! [In Hungarian language “to have poppy” also has to meaning “to have luck”.]

Do not miss tasting the first drinkable “black gold” of the world.
