Description
Christian Brothers Brandy VSOP is an American brandy produced in California by the Christian Brothers distilling tradition, which dates back to the 19th century. VSOP ‘Very Superior Old Pale’ designates a brandy aged longer than standard VS bottlings, giving it a deeper color and more layered flavor profile. Made from a blend of carefully selected grapes and aged in oak barrels, it pours a deep amber-gold.
On the nose expect dried apricot, raisin, toasted oak, vanilla, and a touch of honey. The palate is smooth and rounded, with stewed orchard fruit, caramel, baking spice, and a gentle oak warmth finishing clean and pleasantly sweet. Christian Brothers VSOP sips neatly in a snifter at room temperature, works beautifully in a Brandy Old Fashioned or Sidecar, and is a classic addition to coffee drinks, hot toddies, eggnog, and seasonal spiced cocktails. It is also a kitchen staple for flamb and dessert sauces.
Christian Brothers Brandy has been one of America’s most recognized domestic brandy brands for more than a century, built on the heritage of the Christian Brothers monastic winemaking operation in California. The VSOP bottling sits above the Christian Brothers VS standard in both age and complexity.
