Detailed Description
The label has pioneered the American brandy movement, a spirit largely associated with European markets. Their aged grape brandy is matured in a combination of 90% Kentucky bourbon whiskey barrels, and 10% medium-char new American white oak barrels, delivering a paradigm-shifting new world of brandy that is distinctively American. The result is a smooth and aromatic spirit with a bold rebellious character. Copper & King’s original “DNA” brandy was first bottled in the mid-2014, comprised of pure copper pot-distilled brandies sourced from several distillers, the DNA of the spirit has evolved over the years as a cascade of aged brandy ambrosia is added to the younger “new make” (a variation of the classic solera system).
