Strauch Distillery - CIGARRIGNAC (94 points Falstaff)

Special features: The Cigarrignac from the Strauch Distillery is a German brandy that matures for four years in 225-liter barrique barrels, which were previously flavored with a mild-aromatic Cohiba cigar. This special maturation gives the product a pronounced depth and complexity. It is bottled in a practical tube and offers an appealing value with an alcohol content of 40%. With a bottle size of 500 ml, it represents the craftsmanship of the Strauch Distillery.

Tasting Notes:

• Nose: The Cigarrignac presents a profound aroma of dried fruits, raisins, plums, and ripe fruits, accompanied by notes of leather, tobacco, cocoa, and a slight nuttiness, reminiscent of Spanish brandies.
• Palate: On the palate, the Cigarrignac is gentle and complex with a full-bodied character and rich flavors of dried fruits, fine honey sweetness, and a multi-layered, almost creamy finish.
• Finish: The finish is long-lasting.

Distillery/Bottler: The Strauch Distillery was founded in 1995 by Heinrich, Heinfried, Doris, and Rudolf Strauch and is dedicated to producing special distillates from family-owned wines. The Cigarrignac reflects the production methods of the distillery, which integrates the flavors of the used Cohiba cigars into their spirits. As a bottler, the Strauch Distillery stands for products that are rooted in their region.
