In the last century, Cognac has marketed its way to the top of the brandy hierarchy. Some Cognac houses have even entered the pantheon of popular culture. If other lengthy distilling traditions appear in a state of obscurity compared, it only affirms the success of Cognac's campaign and its ubiquity as the brandy of 'preference'. Australia and South Africa are two to be left in the wake of the French. Spain is another. Due credit must be given to Cognac, but the world's other great grape-based spirit discoveries can be made elsewhere. Readers are reminded that Australia still produces some stunning XO brandies, and a single estate South African bottling from KWV was honored as “Best Brandy in the World' at the London International Spirits Competition in 2010.
Product of Barcelona, Spain.
ABV: 38%
Size: 700ml
