Brandy Juan Sebastián Elcano is a D.O. Brandy de Jerez Solera Gran Reserva from Gutiérrez Colosía. Its solera dates back to the beginning of the 20th century, and the brandy is aged in American oak casks that previously held Oloroso.
It is matured according to the traditional criaderas and solera system, with production limited to just 1,500 bottles per year.
Its name pays tribute to the Spanish training ship Juan Sebastián Elcano, which has close ties to the Bay of Cádiz.
