Our third release of Sullivans Cove XO Single Cask Brandy, cask number TDB009, was distilled in August of 2007 from Tasmanian Chardonnay and aged in a 200L French Oak ex-tawny cask. Bottled at 50.5% abv, this cask produced only 285 bottles.
"This brandy has classic fortified dark fruit notes on the nose, backed up by powerful cedar and tobacco leaf. On the palate we've got beautiful warming rum and raisin with the darkest of chocolate, and a long, lingering finish with lots of leather, toffee and a hint of liquorice. This is a real winter warmer, a very rich, dark and satisfying brandy."
- Patrick Maguire, Head Distiller
