Why Liquor Geeks recommends it
Indian brandy is an unexpected corner of the category, and this XO from Paul John Distillery in Goa makes a strong case for exploring it. Made from grape spirits aged in oak casks for an extended period, it pours a deep amber with hints of mahogany. The nose opens on dried apricot, fig and plum, backed by vanilla, caramel and oak. The palate is lush and velvety, with toffee, dark chocolate and ripe red fruit, plus a subtle spice and a touch of nuttiness from the wood. A long, warming finish leaves a lingering sweetness. Bottled at 46% ABV, it has enough backbone to hold up over ice or in a Sidecar while still rewarding slow sipping from a snifter. It suits a brandy drinker curious to look beyond the usual regions, as well as a collector building a shelf of world spirits. We carry it because it is a characterful, dessert-friendly brandy from a country and producer that surprise a lot of people.
Pairs well with
- Rich dark chocolate desserts — The brandy's own dark chocolate and toffee notes echo a chocolate torte or truffle while its dried fruit adds contrast.
- Creamy cheeses with dried fruit — The apricot, fig and plum character and the gentle nuttiness on the palate work naturally alongside soft cheeses, dried fruits and nuts.
- Celebration toasts — Its long, warming finish and lingering sweetness make it a refined pour for marking a special occasion.
