Distillery

The organized production and bottling of juniper brandy began at the Farmers’ Cooperative “Bajina Bašta” in 1955, and in a relatively short time, it became recognized for its original bottle with a yellow label and a red capsule (bottle cap), which found its place on the shelves of the shops throughout the former Yugoslavia and abroad - in Paris and London - thanks to its exporters.

Distillery "Ognjena“ is situated in a family estate in village Ivanje, 5 km from  Prijepolje. Across the estate spread orchards in which majority of fruits processed into brandy are grown.
