That is actually a good deal. Was just in a liqour store, it is R299 as a special here in JHB.

KWV 12YR 750ML

This golden liquid conjures dried fig, white chocolate, potpourri and smokey oak flavours which deliver a complex and well balanced brandy with a satin finish.

Finally saw one. Some ones I've never seen before.

Likely.

Groot Constantia Cape Brandy VSOP - Groot Constantia

This 375ml potstill brandy has a beautiful golden amber colour. The nose shows dried pear and apricots, followed by cinnamon, nutmeg and caramel. The dried fruit follows on the palate, while the five years wood maturation adds vanilla and almond flavours to the palate.

My two bottles did not last long

I'm keen to get me one.

And all I long for in Europe is a steady supply of Richelieu and KWV 10 year (without having to fork out 50+ euros for a bottle of Richelieu).

Something decent that I came across is this Rooster & Wolf brandy - pretty good!

I'm just waiting for Leo Prinsloo's company, Fortis Group, to reach an agreement with a local manufacturer (possibly Buffelsfontein Brandewyn?) on a "Kom-Jou-****" Special Edition 15 year old brandy. And possibly a 5 year old called "Brandewyn Het Nie Brieke Nie".

It may not suit Buffelsfontein in that Leo is clean shaven, so many other manufacturers with creative marketing departments could go for it.

14yo? I seriously doubt it at that price point. Using the French XO labelling helps keep the age vague (extra old = at least 6 years old). I also don't get the filtering through rooibos gimmick. IMHO it's now a liqueur or spirit drink and no longer a brandy.

So they claim.
