Or put it in the mix and you will have a great party.
An authentic process
Rooster & Wolf cooperated with the fourth generation of a French master distiller family, to create the finest brandy ever for you. It is made from the best grapes in France. This wine is distilled in the ‘alembic charentais’, also known as copper potstills. To make it an extraordinary spirit, the maturation process happens in new and old oak barrels, specially made of wood from the Limousin and Tronçais forests. The spirit transforms from a clear liquid into yellow, red, brown and a rich golden color at the end. But most important, the barrels give the fine brandy an intense but smooth flavour. Finally, the spirits from several barrels and various ages are mixed to create the exclusive Rooster & Wolf fine brandy.
A real ‘eau de vie de vin’, like the master distillers say.
