The first Verboten brandy is shipping
Three years in oak, finished in French casks, bottled at 43% in Pretoria. Verboten Premium Brandy is shipping now.
The first release from this house is a brandy we are prepared to put our name on, which is the whole point of the name.
Verboten Premium Brandy spends a minimum of three years in oak before a finish in French casks. It bottles at 43%, in 750ml. Made to a standard we hold without apology.
What it tastes like
Warm oak, dried apricot and vanilla on the nose. Caramel, toasted nuts and a quiet spice on the palate. The finish is long and does not need help.
How to get one
Order from the shop and it ships anywhere in South Africa within one to two weeks. There is also a two bottle set: one to open, one to keep.
