About this bottle
House Torres was founded by Jaime Torres Vendrell in 1870—a creative time that was often represented by the works of art from Antonio Gaudí. The Casa Milà (aka "La Pedrera"), a building designed by Gaudí, best represents that creative period of modernism in Barcelona. Torres created this brandy as an homage to the innovative spirit of Gaudí. The Jaime I brandy is made with parellada white grapes, and the bottle is inspired by the twisted stone spires featured at the top of Casa Milà.

One of the more unique and beautiful presentations of a box and bottle, shocking given the price being €70. Aroma is just absolutely fantastic, dried fruits, figs, red berries, oak just pop out of the glass Flavor follows suit and adds some extra complexity with just enough baking spices. Finish is decent given it's only 76 proof. I am shocked how good and bold a 76 proof spirit can be! Would easily be a 5 if it was slightly higher proof as the finish is medium length.
Im a man of whisky, but all time search different flavirs and experiences, this brandy its amazing, wonderful, its very easy to drink and gives you a unique experience of flavors. High recommend.
Oak, spices, dark chocolate, grapes, tobacco, pepper. Decent but you mostly pay for the fancy bottle design.
Wow. Tropical coconuts , sweet, and spicy. Has a very long finish. On par with many cognacs and armagnacs
Super smooth. Very flavorful. Warm and inviting. A hint of sweetness.
