This is a 15 year old brandy from German brand, Asbach. Known for being enjoyably spicy and rich, Asbach has something of a cult following after soldiers from the First and Second World War becoming rather fond of it.
Sweet with apple, pear, orange and lasting floral notes.
Well rounded, with spice at the centre and sweet vanilla surrounding it.
A very long finish.
This is one of the best Asbach products and my favourite of them all. Really smooth and has a lovely depth of flavour. A bit pricey I know but I think it’s worth it. If you’ve been lucky enough to visit the region where this is produced it will have a special place in your heart, lots of drunken fun evenings spent with a few Asbachs next to the river.
