An inimitable brandy
-
Guilty or innocent? The controversy continues. Some believe that Rudy Romero was only trying to create the perfect brandy. But he was mistaken, because the perfect brandy already exists, and it is inimitable. So why did he take such a risk? Find out the whole story…
“One could try to copy a good brandy, but it is impossible to imitate the effects of time.”
Can a brandy with a unique personality be copied?
-
Rudy Romero understood very well the production process which makes Brandy de Jerez an impossible drink to equal. But only a personality as powerful as that of Cardenal Mendoza is truly inimitable for its character forged over many years, its magnetism, and its sheer extravagance. Rudy certainly has much in common with the brandy he was trying to fake. But he should have taken into account time: it is pointless trying to copy the truly authentic.
There are reasons why Cardenal Mendoza is so special: it is the result of a selection of the finest pot still holandas aged in Sherry Casks seasoned with Oloroso and Pedro Ximénez for fifteen years. That is why it is exceptional. That is why it is inimitable.
The Cardenal Mendoza experience
-
Cardenal Mendoza is a unique brandy which can be enjoyed in a thousand unique ways. It is classic yet it breaks the rules. It is intense yet delicate. It is noble yet versatile. Thus you can enjoy it on its own, with ice, as a mixed drink… however you enjoy it, it cannot be equalled.
