TOKARA Director’s Reserve 10 Year Old Potstill Brandy
Slow maturation in French oak barrels has enhanced the distinctive characteristics of the TOKARA Ten Year Old Potstill Brandy. The aromas abound with and subtle complex notes of fresh vanilla, dried fig, peach and raisin fruits. The floral pot-pourri aromas and rich jasmine and orange blossom notes add to the complexity of this brandy. The palate delivers mellow rounded flavours of caramel, dried apricots and a spicy pepper and saffron finish. This spirit is one of distinctive character with a fine length and depth of aftertaste.
The base wine for this brandy is made from Chenin Blanc grapes from Stellenbosch vineyards, picked at a ripeness of around 18 degrees brix. The juice was pressed off and fermented at 18 degrees Celsius with selected yeast. No sulphur or enzymes are used in the production of the wine. The resultant wine is kept on the gross lees at 0 degrees Celsius in stainless steel tanks for five months with regular lees stirring. Distillation is done in our copper Pruhlo Alambic potstill. The traditional Cognac double distillation process is followed with the separation of the Head, Heart and Tails fractions. Retaining only the heart fraction for maturation. The resultant spirit, at between 68 and 72% alcohol by volume, is put to 300 litre French oak barrels for maturation. Of which approximately 15% is new Limousin oak and the balance ranging from1 year old to 30 years old barrels. This Ten year brandy is blended from casks which have matured for a minimum of 10 years with some having matured for up to 15 years. Only barrels which display mature mellow characteristics are selected for the blend. This brandy is bottled at an alcohol of 38% by volume for maximum enjoyment.
