The dates for one of the most stylish series of events of the year have been announced.
Fine Brandy Fusion is the premier showcase of South Africa's world-class brandies, providing all lovers of the good life with an opportunity to rub shoulders with celebrities; learn from esteemed brandy masters; and taste their chart-topping creations.
The event takes place this year on June 4 and 5 at the Sandton Convention Centre in Johannesburg.
Celebrating “The Spirit of Craftsmanship” – the theme for Fine Brandy Fusion 2015 – the skill of the brandy master is put on display. The focus will be the craft of brandy blending by expert brandy masters.
Through a series of master classes, you’ll learn first-hand about the art of blending and the building blocks that make an award-winning brandy.
Take your brandy appreciation to a whole new level with Fine Brandy Fusion where you will discover how to identify and savour the delectable natural aromas prevalent in the spirit, and have the opportunity to experience them too.
Interact with makers of small batch brandies and taste brandies from off the beaten track that are only available at the show. The road to greatness has been ages in the making – much like brandy that develops as it matures over time. If you’re new to brandy, this is the perfect chance to learn about the fascinating history of the spirit since it was first distilled on board a Dutch ship in Cape Town harbour in 1672.
Displaying how craftsmanship extends to the barrel in which the liquid is required to rest for years, a cooper from Stellenbosch’s Van Ryn’s brandy distillery – the only active cooperage in Africa – will give a series of live demonstrations.
Event Details
From 5:30pm to 9:30pm (no new entries after 9pm).
R195 for entry, which includes a crystal brandy snifter, a booklet with 15 brandy taster coupons, three cocktail coupons, and two coffee coupons
