Soberano Reserva 5 Brandy

Delicious and such good value compared to French equivalents

I used it to make a cocktail but i think great to drink on its own or to spice up a coffee.

Amazing value for money. I used it in Carajillo and sipped on the rocks, also great with coke.

When it comes to Spanish brandy I usually drink Torres, but decided to try Soberano for some variety. I must say I am not impressed. It smells like sugar syrup (and yes it does contain sugar), the taste is very smooth but also too light and mild. At only 36% it lacks the richer aroma and taste of stronger brandy. Soberano is just an average drink really. Considering the price I will not buy this again. Back to Torres it is.

Can't knock it for under £20. Although I was a bit confused by the cap, turned out to be of the bartender quick pour style, I guess. Rich and smooth without being overly sweet, a good general purpose drinking brandy, i like it on my break with a coffee and a small cigar.
