Opening a Small Family Distillery in Pepelishte, Striving for Great Challenges
Opening a Small Family Distillery in Pepelishte, Striving for Great Challenges
Those who regularly follow us already know that the village of Pepelishte is becoming a destination where new small family wineries and distilleries are emerging more and more often.
Today, the kajak.mk team will introduce you to the story of Dimche Naumov, the man who founded the Enoch distillery in 2022, and in 2023, also established the winery under the same name.
Dimche tells us that the family tradition of making rakija in his family dates back to 1972, when his grandfather began crafting the vineyard story. After his grandfather, the legacy was passed down to his father, and today, Dimche is the one who continues the story.

"At our place, there has always been a strict principle when making rakija. It must be a pure and natural grape rakija, naturally colored with wood and stone fruits. We would never think of using artificial flavors and colors," says Dimche, adding that many of their regular customers notice this.
Around 2018, he inherited the vineyard plantations and began independently distilling rakija. The rakija is produced exclusively from the vineyard plantations of the Naumovski family. The reason they started producing rakija in larger quantities was due to the low purchase price of grapes, as well as the successes they achieved at several competitions.
From 2018 to 2022, they worked on several types of double-distilled rakija. Some were aged in oak barrels, and they also worked on the gold award-winning rakija, which ages with several types of wood. This rakija is an old family recipe developed by Dimche's father over the years.
Dimche says they expect many excellent rakijas, numerous awards, and gold medals, along with satisfied customers.
The vineyard plantations of Enoch are located in the village of Pepelishte, Negotino, where both the distillery and winery are situated, and where the production takes place. They also have a tasting facility in the central area of the city of Kavadarci, at Iljo Kostov Street, No. 4.
