Who needs a dessert? This complex single variety sherry brings with it everything you need – aromas of a luxurious plum juice, harmonious fruity acidity and dark chocolate. And with it, an Aniversario No. 1 by Schuster ensures an exciting expansion of the range of aromas.
Surprising: Blaauwklippen Potstilled Brandy
The surprise from South Africa. This delicate brandy produces a nose of dried apricots, apricot jam, acacia honey and hints of spice and wood. It goes excellently with an El Rey del Mundo Choix Supreme, whose mild and spicy, creamy, slightly sweet texture boosts the spirit’s fruity notes.
Distinguished: Glenfiddich
Probably the most well-known and distinguished single malt worldwide. Combined with a Torpedo from the Balmoral Royal Selection Anejo 18 aromas of candied apples.
Extraordinary: Don Papa Rum
A very extraordinary rum from the Philippines. A Zino Classic Petit Corona with its creamy, sweet texture intensifies the sweetness after the first sip.
Traditional: Pierre Ferrand Pineau des Charentes
This traditional aperitif from France should really be enjoyed slightly cooled. The aromas of a Bolivar Royal Corona accommodates the drink smoothly.
Complex: Bentley B13
Complexity says it all with this rum. Perfect for a Robusto from the Air Bender series by La Flor Dominicana, the blend of which is mainly distinguished by its spicy aromas.
Perfect Start: Jim Beam Signature Craft
Jim Beam can also be different. The aromas of roasted nuts, oak, prunes and sponge cake give you a taste for more. The light fruitiness with a touch of burnt almonds is the perfect accompaniment to a Davidoff Miniature Gold Edition.
Relaunched: James E. Pepper 1776 Rye
America’s oldest whiskey brand has been relaunched and stands out with a great representative of the rye category. Overall, this suggests more an aperitif for the early evening, but in combination with an Oliva G Perfecto, there is no objection to brunch, either.
Complexity and Aroma: Gran Duque d’Alba Oro
Incredibly dense in aromas – oak, vanilla pod, dark chocolate, raisins – the complexity and aroma are apparent in the very first mouthful. The tangy-sweet texture of an Aurora 100 Anos Edición Especial brings out the fruity sweetness of the brandy and ensures a sated feeling in the mouth.
A Wealth of Aromas: Asbach Spezialbrand 15 Years
The 15-year-old can sit easily stand a comparison with its European relatives. An A. Flores Gran Reserva Half Corona with its earthy, aromatic and slightly leathery texture initially brings out a more marked sweetness.
Complex Plum Brandy: Serbica Ramonda
This complex plum brandy from Serbia aged in a barrel is first class. A short robusto by Perla del Mar goes well with it. During the ensuing tête-à-tête, the aromas of the distillate hold their ground nicely.
The Crowning Glory: Auchentoshan Three Wood
Distinctive sherry notes, strongly cooked apricot jam, subtle wood aromas, candied oranges; ethereal. The ideal partner is a Balmoral Royal Selection Anejo 18. Earthy, leathery, subtle coffee aromas and, at the same time, notes of spice cake; perfect.
