The Christian Brothers VS Very Smooth 1.75 L
About this bottle
Christian Brothers VS is a California brandy, and 'Very Smooth' is simply the brand's name for its VS-grade blend, not a separate product. VS signals a younger, mixing-oriented brandy rather than a long-aged sipper. Expect caramel and light vanilla on the nose, a soft, slightly sweet palate with a touch of raisin, and a short, warm finish. This 1.75-liter bottle is sized for everyday use — a well-stocked home bar staple for brandy old fashioneds, hot toddies, or a simple splash over ice rather than a bottle meant for slow, contemplative sipping.
How to drink Christian Brothers VS
On the rocks or in a hot toddy is where this one shines — it's built to mix, not to sip slowly from a snifter. A Brandy Old Fashioned is an easy, reliable way to put the bigger bottle to use.
