Brandy Villa Zarri 18 years old 1998 with Tuscan tobacco selection

Villa Zarri Brandy Millesimato 1998 18 Years

A Distilled Excellence

Already the flagship of Villa Zarri's production, this 18-year-old Brandy Millesimato 1998 represents a unique experience. Its base comes from a Brandy of a single vintage, 1998, obtained from carefully selected Trebbiano Romagnolo wine as raw material, distilled with a discontinuous method using a Charentais copper still. The years that have passed, the expert use of French oak barrels and the magic of the microclimate contribute to making this Brandy exceptional.

A "Cigar to Drink"

To this already extraordinary Brandy, a selection of Kentucky tobacco grown in Tuscany has been added, through an infusion process. The result is an innovative product, a refined companion for those who appreciate the ritual of slow smoking, like that of a cigar. Not just a Brandy, but a real "cigar to drink" or "drinking tobacco", as tobacco consumption was described in the 16th century. Please note that this Brandy contains nicotine, so it is advisable to consume it in moderation.

Tasting Notes

Edited by Paolo Luciani (AIS Rome - Bibenda)

The Brandy has a very bright amber appearance. On the nose, it releases intense aromas of leather, tar, chestnut honey, raisins, black pepper and cigar leaves. On the palate, it is refined, warm and spicy, slightly tannic and enveloping, with an exhilarating finish characterized by a clear accent of licorice wood.
