Williams & Humbert Sherry Lacave Oloroso 0.75L 18% Brandy or sherry? Basically, they are one and the same product. The small but very subtle difference that allows a brandy to be called sherry lies in its origin. If it is a sherry, it will always come from the province of Cadiz in Andalusia, specifically between the triangle of cities Jerez de la Frontera, Sanlucar de Barramenda and Puerto de Santa Maria. Only brandies produced here can officially bear this name. Another special feature of sherry is the grape variety used. Only three special varieties may be used for this: Palomino, Pedro Ximenez and Moscatel. Sherry Lacave Oloroso There is a crucial difference in the preparation of the Oloroso variant compared to, for example, the Fino variant. While the Fino has the so-called flor layer, a foam-like layer that forms during the fermentation process due to the added yeast and thus prevents contact with air, this is deliberately omitted from the strong Oloroso. The aim here is to allow oxidation with oxygen as much as possible in order to increase the formation of acid. Distinctive taste Sherry Lacave Oloroso surprisingly impresses with a finely balanced combination of softness and a youthful touch. The aroma is dominated by fruity dried fruit notes. A certain tartness comes from the walnuts. The two distinctive aromas are also retained in the taste, complemented by further fruity notes of apple.It is ideal for beginners, as the aftertaste is comparatively light and smooth and not too overwhelming.

Williams & Humbert Dry Sack Medium Sweet Solera Especial 15 years 0.5L 20.5% Williams & Humbert Anyone who doesn't know the company yet will probably assume it's a British company because of the name. Although it has British origins, it is now a distillery in Jerez de la Frontera, Andalusia. As early as 1877, Sir Alexander Williams, a wine expert for sherry wines, and Arthur Humbert, a specialist in international relations at the time, dedicated themselves to the Williams & Humbert Bodega. They became known above all for their special storage and the resulting special quality. This is the solera process. Solera process The Dry Sack Medium Sweet Solera Especial 15 years is also a sherry that was produced using the solera process. The barrels are stacked in a pyramid shape, then a certain amount is taken from a barrel in the bottom row and filled into a barrel in the row above. This is continued until the top barrel, where the final product is then found. Products made using this process therefore always contain a mixture of short, medium and long-aged distillates. Dry Sack 15 Años Solera Especial Due to the long maturation of 15 years, this sherry is bursting with complexity and at the same time appears elegant and mature. Nuts and the aroma of dried fruit are clearly in focus, but accompanied by raisins and figs. Despite the significantly sweeter touch, it also has tart barrel notes. It is a sweet, 'medium sweet' sherry that goes particularly well with sweet desserts, chocolate or as an aperitif.

Williams & Humbert As You Like It Medium Sweet Sherry 0.5L 20.5% Cultural asset from Spain Anyone who wants to delve into the world of sherry flavors should try to start with a product from home. Andalusia, or rather the area around Jerez, is known worldwide for high-quality (and sometimes really inexpensive!) wines and sherries. You should do a bit of reading beforehand, as there is a lot of variety. Medium, cream, Oloroso and Amontillado are just a few special types, so you have to find out for yourself which product you particularly like. The Bodega Williams & Humbert is known for its sweeter blends, all of which are matured using the special Solera process, in which different barrel vintages are repeatedly blended together. Amontillado Blend The Montillado sherry variant is a special maturation process. The addition of yeast cultures creates a foamy layer of flor yeast. This prevents the distillate from reacting with oxygen. After a certain time, the yeast cultures die off and the so-called 'oxidative maturation' begins. The result is a very dry sherry. 'Blend' in this case indicates that a large proportion of Amontillado is still contained in order to be clearly perceptible, but it has a more noticeable sweetness. As you like it This special bottling was already available in the 1970s, but after falling demand and a general decline in interest in expensive sherry, it was discontinued. It is all the more pleasing that an untouched Solera from those years has been preserved. Since this was dry Amontillado, the As you like it series was intended to commemorate an old custom. Back then, people liked to add a little sugar to the strong, old Amontillado to make it more palatable. This time, the new edition of As you like it is the blend described above.
