The origins
Stara Sokolova story, which has been passed down for seven generations, started on the east slope of Spasovik hill many centuries ago in an unusually beautiful valley called Krivaja. This mountainous area of Serbia, intersected by streams, full of rich orchards and autochthonous plum sorts, is the oasis where all essential processes in the creation of Stara Sokolova products begin.
R.B. Global d.o.o., the producer of Stara Sokolova Rakija, is a family company, admirers of tradition and guardians of the love between plum brandy and an oak barrel.

The founder of the brand, Radisav Bogdanovic, inherited the traditional recipe for rakija production from his ancestor, Sava Bogdanovic. In cooperation with experts and by application of modern technology, this recipe has been perfected and it has obtained a premium fruit brandy with a distinctive flavour and harmonious taste.

Legends were spun about the rakija made by the Bogdanović family and some of them have even been included in literature. Milomir Djukanovic mentions our rakija in his book “Manhattan Cocktail”.

The first bottle
1995. was the key year for starting up Stara Sokolova as a brand with the clear vision – to provide all admirers of homemade plum brandy with top quality rakija wherever they are
A strong desire, annual production capacity of 200 bottles transported in an old small Zastava 750, i.e. “Fića” car was enough to spin the wheel and for Stara Sokolova to soar above all boundaries.
Plum brandy in a bottle of antique glass is the first product that was placed on the market the very same year. At the Novi Sad Fall Fair in 1995 this rakija, which was distilled and aged in a barrel for 12 years, won its first important gold medal for quality, which encouraged to go on.
