South Africa has a long history of producing fine brandies. In fact, for years the brandy industry was given priority over stillwine production. The first early European settlers to the Cape in 1652 brought their experience with them. Orange amber in colour, it has a mellow woody bouquet with vanilla, bitter orange and a touch of smoke. It is smooth and elegant with a lingering smoky taste. It was produced from Cinsault, Chenin Blanc, Clairette Blanche and Cabernet Sauvignon wines and doubledistilled in a 2000-litre pot still. It was matured for 10 years in oak casks.
