Why Gifted Pour recommends it
A bottle of Williams pear brandy from Germany's Black Forest is the kind of gift that tells someone you went looking for something particular. Kammer distills it from Williams pears and rests it in oak barrels, and the result pours a pale gold with a nose of ripe pear, soft florals and a touch of vanilla. On the palate it is velvety and juicy, with natural pear sweetness, a subtle thread of spice and a gentle warmth that carries into a long, smooth finish. It suits the host who loves ending a dinner party with something to sip, the friend who bakes, or anyone who already knows their whiskeys and would enjoy a fresh direction. Give it at a housewarming, for a holiday dinner, or as a thank-you to someone who appreciates the slow pour. They can enjoy it neat in a tulip glass at room temperature, alongside a pear tart or a cheese board, or shake it into a Pear Sidecar when friends come over.
