Classic German brandy Asbach Uralt disappeared from shelves for a short while, but it has since been relaunched! Now with a slightly lower ABV than before (previous bottlings were presented at 38% ABV), Asbach Uralt remains a great choice for cocktails and mixed drinks.
Honey, spicy black pepper and cassia, toffee apple and ripe grape.
Started drinking Asbach in 1985 ,fantastic back in the day,when it dissapeared from the club's and then made a reappearance it did not have the smoothness and palatable aroma and taste associated with this previously very nice German brandy, I suspect the reduction in alcohol is purely to circumvent the duty payable as has happened to the stronger lagers and beers,put it back to the original strength ,people will pay for the quality product ,I won't be buying another one , dissapointed
A straight con when Original is still available at cheaper price
Excellent smooth drink goes down quite easily have been drinking this for past 50 years much preferred than other famous named Brandy’s.
For goodness sake, how can you recommend this as a mixer? Asbach needs to be drunk slowly and neat to appreciate the mellow depth and fruitiness. Use cognac for cocktails and mixes; give Asbach the respect it deserves!
Astonishingly brilliant. I bought six bottles last year during our Christmas Markets trip to Essen, Düsseldorf and Cologne. I had polished the lot off by Easter. Intended on doing the same this year but this bloody Chinese inspired virus ruined my cunning plan.
