My highest recommendations for both the gin and the service. I was thinking last minute about a gift for someone who lives abroad and wanted to give something from the Slavonia region. On Saturday, after 1 p.m., Castrum gin came to mind — a gin I had tried before and needed to get by 6 p.m. that same day. Since I’m from Požega, I thought I’d quickly go to Kaptol to get it if they were open. Unfortunately, they weren’t, but the owner, Iva, offered to deliver the gin to my address in Požega by 6 p.m. I ordered a gift set, so I didn’t have to worry about wrapping since it comes in a great gift box. When we met, Iva was incredibly kind and friendly, and the delivery arrived by 5 p.m. Now I know what I’ll be giving as gifts this year.

Najbolje preporuke i za gin i za uslugu. Znači u zadnji tren sam razmišljala o poklonu osobi koja živi vani i željela sam pokloniti nešto iz požeškog, slavonskog kraja. Subotom, poslije 13h na pamet mi je pao Castrum gin kojeg sam probala prije nekog vremena i koji mi je trebao za taj dan do 18h. Budući da sam iz Požege mislila sam skoknuti do Kaptola po njega u slučaju da rade. Nažalost nisu radili ali vlasnica Iva se ponudila da će mi do 18h dostaviti gin u Požegu na moju adresu. Naručila sam poklon paket pa se nisam morala opterećivati niti oko pakiranja poklona jer dolazi u super poklon kutiji. Prilikom upoznavanja Iva je bila super ljubazna i draga, dostava je bila do 17h. Sad znam što ću nositi za poklone ove godine.

Na recenziju me “natjerao” gin destilerije Castrum. Nevjerojatno ukusan, bogat i osvježavajuć. Gotovo savršen. Autori su sasvim zasluženo višestruko nagrađivani proizvođači vrhunskih pića. Bravo.

This review was “forced” out of me by Castrum Distillery’s gin. Incredibly delicious, rich, and refreshing — almost perfect. Its creators are multiple award-winning producers of top-quality spirits, and fully deserving of it. Bravo.

From the very beginning, Castrum Distillery has been a true refreshment in the Papuk region — both as a company and on a personal level — and we are fortunate to have enjoyed a high quality, sincere, and professional partnership from the start. We regularly bring clients to tastings at the distillery, and we are especially passionate about Planinkovac because its entire story aligns perfectly with ours. As an adventure agency, we gift Planinkovac to our clients for moments of relaxation after exertion, as well as for various rewards after competitions, because in addition to offering a high-quality product, we are also giving a piece of Papuk and all the stories hidden behind it.

Destilerija Castrum je od samih početaka jedno veliko osvježenje u potpapučkom kraju, kako kao sama firma, tako i s ljudske strane, a mi imamo sreću što od samih početaka imamo jednu kvalitetnu, iskrenu i profesionalnu suradnju. Redovito dovodimo klijente na degustacije u destileriju, a najviše smo pobornici Planinkovca zato što se cijela priča Planinkovca uklapa i u našu priču. Kako smo pustolovna agencija, svojim klijentima za trenutke opuštanja poslije napora, ali i za razne nagrade poslije natjecanja, darujemo Planinkovac jer, osim što dajemo kvalitetan proizvod, dajemo i jedan komad Papuka te sve one priče koje se kriju iza njega.

Working with Castrum is extremely pleasant and professional. Their products stand out for their quality and distinctive design, which our customers at Bačva quickly noticed. From the very opening, the people of Đakovo recognized Castrum’s products and gladly choose them. We are especially delighted that customers often share photos from their travels, gatherings, and celebrations — and their Planinkovac is almost always there with them. One customer even showed us how they turned a ceramic Planinkovac bottle into an original night lamp, which proves how inspiring Castrum’s products remain even after they’ve been emptied.

Suradnja s Castrumom izuzetno je ugodna i profesionalna. Njihovi proizvodi odlikuju se kvalitetom i prepoznatljivim dizajnom, što su vrlo brzo uočili i naši kupci u Bačvi. Đakovčani su od samog otvorenja prepoznali Castrumove proizvode i rado ih biraju. Posebno nas veseli što nam kupci često dijele fotografije s raznih putovanja, druženja i proslava – uz njih je gotovo uvijek njihov Planinkovac. Jedan nam je kupac čak pokazao kako je od keramičke boce Planinkovca izradio originalnu noćnu svjetiljku, što nam je dokaz koliko Castrumovi proizvodi nadahnjuju i nakon što su ispražnjeni.

Planinkovac je, po mom skromnom mišljenju, najbolji liker na bazi pelina u Hrvatskoj. Aromatika se predivno osjeti te nije ugušen šećerima, već je ono što očekuješ od gorkog likera, savršeno gorko-sladak. Riječ je o proizvodu koji zavodi, ne samo izgledom, već i aromatikom i okusom. Uvijek vrlo rado preporučim svojim gostima.

Planinkovac is, in my humble opinion, the best wormwood-based liqueur in Croatia. The aroma comes through beautifully, without being overwhelmed by sugars. Instead, it’s perfectly bittersweet, just as you’d expect from a bitter liqueur. It’s a product that seduces, not only with its appearance but also with its aroma and taste. I always gladly recommend it to my guests.
