Great rivalry forges stronger spirit.

Fifteen years resting in small oak barrels nurtured a spirit as uncompromising as the men who founded it. The Founders' Tribute takes our award winning XV further, bottled at 45%, intensified in flavour and refined in character. A limited edition built around the two sides of the fiercest fixture in world rugby, now on the same side of a bottle.

At greater strength, the cask carries further into the glass. Aromatics that sit quietly at 40% step forward, the fruit deepens, and the finish runs longer.

Nose: A magical bouquet of fruits (peaches, dried apricot and a subtle hint of pear), lifted and concentrated at strength.

Palate: The fruit follows through, balanced by honey, caramel and traces of citrus, fuller and more layered than the original expression.

Finish: Warm, long-lasting and full-bodied, with walnut, almond and a touch of spicy vanilla rounding out a sensory experience par excellence.

Make it personal with laser engraving (your name, your company, or the occasion).

15 Year Old Cape Potstill Brandy. Bottled at 45%. 750ml.
