SAB'S Brandy "Tennessee Cask Finish" | Alambic Bourguignon

SAB'S Brandy "finish Tennessee Cask" | Alambic Bourguignon

Located in Beaune, in the heart of Burgundy, the Alambic Bourguignon continues an ancestral heritage of artisan distillation. Renowned for its ability to extract the pure essence from the best Burgundy grape varieties, the Alambic Bourguignon is committed to preserving unique expertise. In addition to its iconic spirits such as Marc de Bourgogne and Fine de Bourgogne, the distillery innovates with original creations such as this Brandy "Finish Tennessee Cask".

This Brandy results from the subtle blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, emblematic grape varieties of Burgundy. After an initial traditional aging phase, the spirit is transferred for 6 months into casks that have held Tennessee American whiskey. This process imparts the Brandy with woody, spicy, and slightly caramelized notes, while preserving the delicacy and elegance inherent to Burgundy grape varieties.

• Color: Golden and luminous, evoking the amber reflections of American whiskey.
• Nose: Elegant and expressive, with notes of vanilla, caramel, and toasted wood, accompanied by subtle touches of dried fruits and honey.
• Palate: Discover a silky and velvety texture, marked by a beautiful roundness. The woody flavors of the American cask harmonize with fruity notes of ripe grapes, a hint of mild spices, and a slight smoky touch.
• Finish: Long and persistent, with a subtly woody note and a slightly vanilla sweetness.

The SAB'S Brandy "Finish Tennessee Cask" is an elegant and complex spirit, perfect for special tasting moments.

As a digestif, enjoy it neat, at room temperature, to fully appreciate its aromatic richness and velvety texture.

For a gourmet pairing, serve it with a dark chocolate fondant, where the Brandy's woody and caramelized notes will enhance the depth of the chocolate.

It also pairs well with a blue cheese, like a mild Roquefort, creating a harmonious contrast between the Brandy's sweetness and the salty character of the cheese.

In a cocktail, use it as a base for a reimagined Brandy Old Fashioned, adding a sugar cube, a few drops of Angostura bitters, and an orange zest for a sophisticated and balanced drink.

For a bolder tasting, accompany it with a mild and woody cigar, which will perfectly match its warm and spicy aromas.
