St Rémy brandy is releasing the latest addition to its Cask Finish Collection titled Finished in Port Casks. Only 13,360 bottles will be available.
The spirit has been matured in oak casks which previously held fortified Portuguese wine Tawny Port. It’s said to remain true to the heritage of the brand, particularly in its distilling, aging and crafting.
The producer has described the brandy as having aroma notes of black and dry fruits, roasted nuts, coffee and dried flowers, while having notes of black fruits, roasted nuts and minerality on the palate.
Master blender Cécile Roudaut commented on the release: “I am delighted to release our latest expression from the Cask Finish Collection. Throughout this process the aim has been to innovate and offer brandy-drinkers something new, whilst remaining faithful to St-Rémy’s traditions and heritage, using techniques that honour the methods used when the house was founded in 1886.”
The release follows on from the launch of its limited-edition Sauternes Cask Finish, and the second batch of the Dark Rum expression in 2021.
The collection is to be launched this month, with distribution in Canada, Taiwan and Mexico.
