Sales of quality pálinka rose last year, Pálinka Guild Association head Gaborné Panyik said in Monday’s issue of business daily Napi Gazdaság.
Sales of top-shelf palinka accounted for nearly all of the rise in overall palinka sales in 2010, Panyikné said.
Sales of pálinka, gauged in 50% alcohol by volume units, rose from 1.04 million litres to 1.08 million litres last year.
Contract distilling for households, at 8 million litres last year, accounts for most pálinka consumption in Hungary.
