The Riserva Heritage Caffo, a sensational brandy from southern wines that matured in 1970 and spent 46 years in the barrel. A legacy of the golden age of Italian brandy, the result of the work of the distillers of the time and their copper stills. A limited series of just a few hundred bottles of an impressive and particularly noble vintage brandy, a brandy actually too bad to sell or give away, a brandy to enjoy yourself, in the evening full of passion and peace, a brandy from the 1970 vintage to fall in love with .
This particularly noble spirit has well-known names such as Cognac, Armagnac, brandy and brandy. The spirits must consist of at least 50 percent brandy, the rest is wine distillate.
Even 100 years after the acquisition of the historic Borsci liqueur factory in Taranto, the great goals of the Caffo company do not stop. The factory in Calabria is undoubtedly the best equipped and most important company in the production of alcohol in southern Italy, starting with the extraction of aromatic herbs, through the distillation of pomace, to the finished products. The new packaging line makes it possible to produce around 100,000 bottles in one shift and the old distillation tower is recovered, which aims to recreate the copper stills used two generations ago in the next campaign. Optimizing the distribution abroad and increasingly diversifying the production, especially promoting the alcoholic specialties of the Italian tradition, this is still today the mission for the years to come.
According to various records, the origin of brandy probably dates back to the 17th century. Merchant ships transported cheap Portuguese wine to England. In order not to transport unnecessary ballast, they heated the wine before loading it to evaporate the water. In England, the water should then be buried again. The distillate was tasted by chance, so that one can speak of the birth of the brandy.
The extraordinary and exquisite brandy gift idea for a special birthday or anniversary of the 1970 vintage, absolute top rarity, only a few bottles left.
