The prestigious contest “International Review of Spirits” (USA, Chicago) announced the results of the tasting: among thousands of samples from around the world the most deserving, alcoholic beverages were selected. The jury panel awarded the 10-year-old divin “KVINT Surprise XO” with a Silver Medal, giving it the category “Highly Recommended”.
Below is the text of organoleptic characteristics of the 10-year-old divin “KVINT Surprise XO”, written by the jury panel:
“Medium dark amber color. Aromas and flavors of olorosso sherry, fruit cake, marcona almonds, and molasses cookies with forest berry jam filling with a glycerous, bright, fruity light-to-medium body and a tingling, breezy jamón serrano, za’atar, dried oranges, and buckwheat honey finish. A Spanish-inspired Brandy for cocktail play and after-dinner sipping”.
