Esperit Roca: the liquid cuisine of El Celler de Can Roca
Esperit Roca is the beverage project of the Roca brothers: the liquid cuisine of El Celler de Can Roca.
Inspired by the landscapes that have captivated the brothers Joan, Josep and Jordi, Esperit Roca was born from the desire to contribute their vision of the landscape, distilling it and giving it a new liquid face.
We offer a range of products, including distillates, liqueurs, fortified wines and beers, to create a unique gastronomic experience.
