About this Item

Sydney Back Strauss & Co 17 Year Old Potstill Brandy
12 (1 x 12) 750ml

Sydney Back Strauss & Co 17 Year Old Potstill Brandy

The Sydney Back brandies are known for their intensity of stone fruit characters and balanced oak. When blending a batch of brandy, we select barrels of different vintages that contribute to the full spectrum of flavours that add to the complexity and where the fruit is balanced by the oak. The stone fruit characters need to be well balanced by the wood. Every now and again, we find a barrel, in this case two barrels, that already contain good expressive stone fruit notes, and that are well balanced by the oak.

The 17-year-old limited release is packed with fresh peach characters on the nose, and persisting stone fruits like dried peach and apricots on the pallet. This is complemented by light notes of cinnamon and vanilla from the lengthy maturation in oak.

The two brandies for the auction, are two barrels, one which is 17 years old, and the other is 22 years old. Both of these releases are single barrels, and all the content in the bottles are of that age.
