Asbach Uralt German Brandy

Type : Brandy
ABV : 80
Producer : Asbach GmbH
Country : Germany
Size : 750ml
Description :

A German Brandy blended from 25 different wine distillations, then aged for up to 3 years in limousin oak casks. With a deep golden color, cognac character but fruitier. Grape and oak aroma. Clean, crisp with a rather astringent flavor.
Appearance: Attractive red/gold color, leaves thin coat on swirling. Could be mistaken for a bourbon in color.
Taste: Sweet and thick, with intense dark fruits, then black pepper and a hot finish. It seems to be a German characteristic that their distillates have a hot, rough finish compared to other countries' distillates. Maybe this is why they favored alcohol over gasoline at Peenemunde to mix with their LOX.
Bottle: Simple clear glass bottle, somewhat distinctive (high sloped shoulder and large raised "A" in the back).
Other: Twice-distilled and aged in small casks.
