Voerman Vieux combines the richness of Limousin oak-aged-grape brandy from France with the uplifting versatility of natural botanicals: bittersweet orange, distinct cardamom, aromatic figs, warming cinnamon and fiery ginger root. Bold, characterful, and rewarding enough to savour neat or on the rocks, yet especially developed to gracefully mix in a wide array of highballs and cocktails. Meticulously crafted at one of the oldest family distilleries in Schiedam, The Netherlands.
