BrenBarn

Fundador Solera

Spanish Brandy — Jerez, Spain

Reviewed January 16, 2022 (edited January 22, 2022)
3.0
3.0 out of 5 stars
Caveat: I'm not 100% sure what I have is the same as what's listed here, but this seems to be the only thing on Distiller that might be it. The version I have is 40% ABV although Distiller lists it as 36%. This brandy is okay but doesn't really stand out to me. The aroma is sweet in a vaguely fruitcake sort of way, with lots of grape, caramel, and vanilla, and perhaps a bit of nuttiness. The taste starts with grape and quickly dissolves into an extremely sweet caramel. It's not quite sickly sweet but it's getting there, although it's tempered by some tangy fruit. The finish has a faint burn, a hint of spice, and a bit of chocolate and burnt sugar. The sweetness is the most prominent feature in both the smell and the taste and there's slightly too much of it for me. It's not bad by any means, just a little bit over the top with the caramel, and there aren't really any other complex or unusual flavors to draw the attention. It was pretty cheap at $22. I enjoyed the bottle but probably wouldn't buy this again as there are other brandies that I prefer, even if they cost slightly more (like in the $25-30 range).
22.0 USD per Bottle
