De Kuyper has launched the world's first Cherry Brandy XO. A wonderfully rich fruit liqueur made with the finest Marasca cherries from Croatia, Cherry Noir and two extracts from Fougerolles, blended with a 10 year old Grande Champagne XO Cognac and a hint of Kirsch.

A substantial amount of cherries have been processed for this premium liqueur with a proportion of the cherries dried to produce a special and unique effect on the end product. Parts of the kernels are processed to give the liqueur an intriguing hint of almond.

The quality bottle design is inspired by the original art deco style of the Cherry Brandy bottle produced by De Kuyper in the 1920's. Limited edition of 2,500 bottles, each bottle comes with its own certificate of authenticity.

Created for Rudolph Valentino's 1922 movie premiere of 'Blood and Sand'.
