Well, 2020 sure has been an odd year. I feel now more than ever, is the time to embrace the holiday spirit as we look hopefully to the horizon of 2021.
Why not treat yourself to some finer spirits to help get into that festive mode? We all deserve some spirited love this season. Baby, it’s cold outside and it is always great fun to conspire as you sit by the fire, sipping on an elegant brandy.
Investing in a spirit purchase over the holiday season provides lasting enjoyment for sipping and savouring on those frosty winter eves. Premium spirits are expensive but haven’t you been nice this year?!
Our wish to you all, is for a happy and healthy holiday season from all of us at JAK’S!
JEFFERSON OCEAN BOURBON - $129.99
This is truly the Bourbon for the salted caramel popcorn lover in your family. The time spent ageing at sea gives it a hint of fresh sea air salinity. This Bourbon has travelled more than most of us this year, with visiting 5 continents as it crosses the equator 4 times for extra ageing.
The result is a rich and decadent spirit with bountiful flavours of salted caramel, cocoa, vanilla and a lovely ginger spice coming through on the finish. It will warm the cockles of your heart to the tip of your toes.
RON ZACAPA RUM 23 - $78.99
A serious rum from Guatemala produced from a blend of rums aged in a solera system from 6 to 23 years. The long-term ageing gives a round creamy mouthfeel laden with flavours of butterscotch, treacle, raisin and chai spice. Lightly sweet it can be served neat or on the rocks. A dash of coconut water can lighten up the richness nicely. Pair with some gingerbread cookies for a fun holiday match.
MERY MELROSE VSOP COGNAC - $89.99
Crafted with care and attention using organically grown grapes, this artisan Cognac shows tremendous value.
Lifted blossom aromas mingle with caramelized orange peel, apricot, fig and warming cinnamon spice on the finish. The silky and smooth mid-palate rounds out the flavours beautifully. Serve in a snifter whilst in a big cozy chair conspiring by the fire.
