Torres 10 is a solera aged Spanish brandy, made by a company that certainly knows a thing or two about producing excellent grape-based beverages, as Torres have a history with top-quality brandies and wine. This was aged using a solera and features a rich, intense bouquet. As an aside, 10 is also very close to Fernando Torres' shirt number, which is 9. A happy coincidence, we're sure.
I wanted to try Brandy de Jerez (Spanish brandy distilled from sherry). There's not much choice in the US, so I thought this Spanish brandy might be similar. Similar or not, it is younger than a 10-year old cognac would be. I think with Spanish rules they're allowed to state "average" age instead of minimum. There are better VSOP cognacs and armagnacs out there. Sure, it's cheap but it was a waste. I'd rather get 2 bottles or a 1.75L of St. Remy VSOP (poor man's cognac). The color is so dark that nobody will believe it came from casks. The E150a bitterness is noticeable. This has been demoted to cooking brandy - right after I use up my bottle of 7-star Metaxa, another waste of money. You can get a Napoleon Armagnac for a few more dollars, which approaches XO flavor. Lesson learned.
