{"product_id":"asbach-uralt-3-year-german-brandy-750ml","title":"Asbach Uralt 3 Year German Brandy 750ml","description":"\u003cp\u003eAsbach Uralt is the flagship of Germany's oldest brandy house, a Weinbrand distilled from selected wines and matured for at least three years in small Limousin oak casks in Rüdesheim am Rhein.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHugo Asbach founded his distillery in 1892 in Rüdesheim am Rhein, a storied winemaking town on the Rhine. He is credited with coining the word Weinbrand for German grape brandy after the Treaty of Versailles reserved the word Cognac for French producers, and the term became official in German wine law in 1923. Uralt has carried that classification ever since.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe brandy is produced from carefully selected wines through traditional distillation, then rests for a minimum of three years in small Limousin oak barrels, several times longer than the legal minimum for German brandy. It is blended from many distillations, which gives it its smooth, well-integrated house style.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eExpect ripe grapes, plums and nuts on the nose, with vanilla, honey and subtle spice on the palate, all carried by a mellow, rounded texture and a gentle oak finish. It is a classic after-dinner digestif, served neat or slightly warmed by cupping the glass in your hands.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAsbach Uralt is also the base of Rüdesheimer Kaffee, the famous German coffee drink created in 1957: brandy flamed with sugar cubes, topped with hot coffee and whipped cream, and finished with grated chocolate. A bottle with more than a century of tradition behind it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ripe grapes, plums, nuts.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Vanilla, honey, subtle spice.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mellow and rounded, gentle oak.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProducer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Asbach, Rüdesheim am Rhein, Germany\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFounded:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1892 by Hugo Asbach\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e German Weinbrand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAge:\u003c\/strong\u003e Minimum 3 years in small Limousin oak casks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProof \/ ABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 80 proof (40% ABV)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to Enjoy It\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eSip it neat after dinner, or make a Rüdesheimer Kaffee with sugar, hot coffee, whipped cream and grated chocolate.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is Weinbrand?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGerman grape brandy; Hugo Asbach is credited with coining the term.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow long is it aged?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAt least three years in small Limousin oak casks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is Rüdesheimer Kaffee?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA German coffee drink made with Asbach, sugar, coffee and whipped cream, created in 1957.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eExplore more in our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/cognac\"\u003eCognac \u0026amp; Brandy collection\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Asbach","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68199300628789,"sku":"VWS_200420052","price":34.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0993\/7367\/8901\/files\/noir-gold-main-30617.webp?v=1794507015","url":"https:\/\/hiddencasks.com\/products\/asbach-uralt-3-year-german-brandy-750ml","provider":"Hidden Casks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
