Bezalel VSOP Potstill Brandy (Lot 32)
Matured for a minimum of six years in small French oak barrels, this robust and expressive VSOP is double distilled and handcrafted in the Northern Cape.

The palate is bold yet balanced, with flavours of apricot preserve, almond brittle and soft caramel unfolding on a warm, full-bodied structure. A long, rounded finish follows with lingering notes of spice and golden fruit. Seductive and generous, this brandy is made for those who appreciate power and polish in equal measure.
Bezalel Rooibos Potstill Brandy
The first of its kind in South Africa, this double-distilled brandy is aged for a minimum of five years in small French oak barrels and matured further on indigenous Rooibos wood. Deep amber with reddish undertones, the nose is bold and unmistakably South African, opening with intense orange peel, burnt caramel, and the earthy sweetness of rooibos. On the palate, it delivers a full, rounded experience: dark chocolate, charred orange, smoky spice and hints of dried fig. The finish is long, warm and layered, echoing with rooibos tea, vanilla and soft oak tannin. Complex and unforgettable, this is a brandy for adventurous palates, best enjoyed neat, under starlit skies or around a winter braai.
