Carlos I Solera Gran Reserva Brandy de Jerez 40.0% 0,7 l

Carlos I Solera Gran Reserva Brandy de Jerez is the epitome of a Spanish Brandy.

Carlos I Solera Gran Reserva Brandy de Jerez is aged in barrels for at least 12 years. This is where the Brandy has developed its very special character as well as the attractive mahogany color. This aromatic Carlos I Solera Gran Reserva Brandy de Jerez is presented in a beautiful noble designer bottle. The distillate is presented with a typical Osborne look and is sealed by a cork and an orange collar. 

This Brandy is distilled in pot stills and is aged in the solera system, the exact same way that sherry is aged. The oak barrels previously housed sherry. The oak allows for the intense dark color. The solera system works the following way: Rows of oak barrels are stacked. Recent distillates are in the top barrels and are gradually filled into the lower barrels to older distillates until the final creation is complete.

On opening a bottle of this delicious Spanish Brandy a scent characterized by aromatic complexity escapes. Nuances of vanilla climb up into the nose, refined by a basket full of juicy fruit, spicy oak and sweet pastry.

Initially tastes of almond and nutmeg show on arriving in the mouth. After that vanilla pods join in and are accompanied by juicy plums and milk chocolate. Even some slightly bitter coffee, creamy caramel and liquorice resonate and offer this confident Carlos I Solera Gran Reserva brandy de Jerez the special elegant touch.  

The finish is soothing, round, pleasant and long-lasting with a slight aftertaste of vanilla. 

The Spanish company chain Osborne is responsible for the production of this exquisite traditional spirit.

The history of the company dates back all the way to 1772. Osborne is the second oldest active family owned company in Spain. The well-known Bull logo of the distillery, more accurately referred to as the Bull of Osborne, was designed in 1956 by the artist Manuel Prieto and trademarks were provided by the Supreme Court of Spain in 1997. 

Since then the Carlos I Solera Gran Reserva Brandy de Jerez cannot be confused as the outwardly appearance presents itself with its uniqueness. 

However it should be noted that probably no other symbol exists which so accurately illustrates the culture and the country Spain as a black bull.

We recommend this Carlos I Solera to accompany coffee and cake or even as a digestive after heavier meals.
