'Patxaran (Pacharan) is a sloe-flavoured liqueur from Navarra. It is made from the plant Prunus Spinosa, a thorny, wild bush belonging to the rose family. A close relative of cherry and plum trees, it does well in mountainous areas. For this reason many names have been given to the fruit including 'wild', 'bastard', 'of the mountain', 'plum', and 'thorny'.' Importers note
