Originally founded in 1882 by the members of the Christian Brothers religious order in California, the brand began producing brandy as a way to support their educational mission. Today, it remains one of America's oldest and most recognizable domestic brandy labels, celebrated for its legendary smoothness.
Distilled in the heart of California's vineyard regions, this brandy is crafted using traditional copper pot still distillation methods. It is aged for at least two to three years in hand-selected white oak barrels to achieve its signature amber warmth.
