Tasting Panel
Aromatic grape varieties are copper pot–distilled and non-chill-filtered. This 90-proof spirit is matured in Kentucky bourbon and medium char American oak barrels. The nose is elegant, with caramel, summer peach and a hint of vanilla. The palate becomes more outspoken, with a range of flavors from tobacco leaf to orange peel to tongue-trotting black pepper. The brandy makes a grand statement for the domestic spirits category
Taking its name from the Dutch term, brandewijn, for burnt or cooked wine, in the broadest sense of the term, Brandy is any liquor made from the distillation of fruit wine. Though any kind of fruit may be used, wine grapes are the most common. Clear Brandy, commonly referred to as Eau de Vie, is unaged and bottled directly after distillation. Finer grape-based Brandies are often aged in oak barrels for anywhere from two years (VS) to six years (XO) or longer, gradually gaining color and complexity as they interact with the wood.
