"After the cones are harvested, they are cut into 3–5 mm slices and soaked in grain brandy."
That's disappointing. It's pine flavored brandy. It isn't actually made from pine.
I suppose a more accurate title would be Pine Cone Party Liqueur.

You could break down the cellulose in the wood into simpler sugars and ferment those.
that's what was disappointing. I expected something different or a unique pine tree.
