Crafted with the same care and passion as our celebrated whiskeys, the 117º West Spirits Brandy is a bold California expression that bridges the world of fine wine and fine spirits. Distilled from Grenache and Syrah grapes and aged for three years in whiskey barrels, this unique brandy offers a flavor experience that is both refined and adventurous.
Tasting Notes
Nose: Bright fruit with notes of cherry, plum, and dried fig.
Palate: Rich and smooth with layers of vanilla, toasted oak, and subtle spice from the whiskey barrels.
Finish: Long, warming, and complex—balancing fruit-forward vibrancy with whiskey’s depth.
Why It’s Unique
While most brandies lean on neutral barrel aging, our Brandy takes on the distinct character of whiskey casks. This gives it a remarkable dual personality—perfect for brandy enthusiasts looking for something new, and whiskey drinkers eager to expand their palate.
Serving Suggestions
Enjoy neat or with a single cube to highlight its complexity.
Pair with rich desserts like dark chocolate or berry compote.
Elevate classic cocktails like the Sidecar or Brandy Old Fashioned.
