Carlos I Solera Gran Reserva Brandy Miniature 5cl

Carlos I Solera Gran Reserva Brandy de Jerez | 5cl Miniature


An Extraordinary Legacy of Discovery and Spanish Craftsmanship


Experience the rich history and complex character of Carlos I Solera Gran Reserva, a pinnacle of Spanish Brandy de Jerez. The legend of Carlos I began in 1889 when a cellar master in Jerez discovered "forgotten" barrels tucked away in a corner of his bodega. Upon tasting the liquid, he realized he had found the most exceptional brandy ever produced in the region. He named it Carlos I to honor the great Spanish monarch and conqueror, marking the birth of a world-class spirit.


This 5cl miniature offers a perfect introduction to this legendary brandy. Produced from a meticulous selection of the finest Airén grapes and distilled in traditional old copper pot-stills, the spirit undergoes a lengthy aging process in American oak casks. These casks previously held the finest Amontillado and Oloroso sherries, imparting an unrivaled depth of flavor and historical character.
