I am looking for a Spanish brandy for my man's birthday present. He told me about a brandy he wants. All he knows is that it has a number in the name of the brandy. Yeah.... um... oooooook... NOT ENOUGH INFO  *doh!*

Do any of you have a recommendation for a Spanish brandy?

Well, no, but I had a favorite drink when I lived in Madrid;
It's Sol y Sombra  (sun and shade)

2/3 cognac, 1/4 anise (in the US use anisette) with a dash of whiskey.

Makes two shots.

Purrrrrr.

I learned a lot from that drink; at touristy bars, it would cost 2$ and lack the whiskey.  Go uphill just a few blocks, same drink, 1$.  Tourists don't walk uphill.

Go to a tiny bar in the boondocks that never gets a tourist, same drink, 1$, with all the ingredients.

It became my defacto bar-test.

Have fun, CL.   purr
