Hiram Walker Blackberry Brandy 1L

The dark fruit notes really come through in this brandy, making it perfect for slow sipping on its own. Mixed into a cocktail, the berry flavor stays bold without getting syrupy. A liter bottle at this quality is a solid value.

Mixed a splash of this with some lemonade and it was dangerously smooth—the berries came through without being cloying. Perfect for a simple summer sipper when you want something sweet but not candy-like.

The berry and dark fruit notes really come through on the palate, and the 1L bottle is a great value for mixing. I've been using it in blackberry cocktails and sipping it over ice, and it's smooth without being overly sweet.
