In the Galician cultural tradition, legends and the supernatural occupy an outstanding position. In order to protect and purify against evil spirits and meigas, name given to Galician witches, it was casted out the queimada, an old brew made with Galician Orujo, and besides, healing properties are attributed to it.
Since 1989, an EEC regulation recognized Galicia as the only Spanish region entitled to Geographical Indication, in the same rank as the French marcs, the Italian grappas , the Portuguese bagaçeiras and the Greeks tsipouros.
Bodegas Pablo Padín offers a range of spirits distilled from our pomace and certified by the Orujo de Galicia G.I., composed by traditional liquors and others adapted to contemporary tastes derived from the study of inherited recipes from master Galician spirit makers.
