Richot Brandy is not just a drink; it is a journey from the sun-drenched vineyards of the Apennine Mountains in Italy to the vibrant streets of Nairobi. Known for its “Perfect Blend” rating, this brandy is distilled from wholesome, sound wine and undergoes a meticulous five-year aging process in oak casks at the world-renowned Bonollo Distillery, a house with a legacy dating back to 1918.
The 250ml bottle is the perfect size for those who appreciate quality in a compact form, whether you are crafting a classic brandy cocktail or enjoying a nightcap with friends. Its Italian heritage ensures a refined character that has made it one of the most beloved brandy varieties in the Kenyan market since its arrival. Every drop is monitored by a Master Vintner to ensure the wood-aged complexity meets the highest international standards before it is bottled for your enjoyment.

- Finish: A long, satisfying finish with lingering notes of cinnamon, nutmeg and a gentle peppery warmth.
Accolades & History

Its maturation is handled by the legendary Bonollo Distillery in Italy, which is widely acclaimed by spirits experts for using some of the most advanced distillation technologies in Europe.
