Bought this for a mate's birthday without thinking it through...
Got to watch him drink it with Coke Zero....

LOL - I drink my KWV 15y with Coke Zero as well.

I just like it that way - not really interested in how others drink it.

Klipdrift Gold is also good.

Agreed, but haven’t been able to find a bottle of this in the last 2 years. Not sure if they stopped producing this.

Had mine a while.

PS, did you know that they have warehouses places at various locations around SA so that if one does burn down the supply chain of Klippies is not broken.

Recommendations for a good brandy to give to someone as a birthday gift? R500-R1 000 per bottle budget.

Is the recipient a regular brandy drinker? How do they drink it? On ice / straight / water / other?

What brand/s of brandy do they typically drink?
Does it have to be brandy, or are you willing to consider cognac (because it's in your price range)?

Only sporadically.

Straight .... water on the side

No specific preference

Cognac is good too.

Thanks!!
