Stella Rosa
Smooth Black Berry Flavored Brandy

Category: Flavored Brandy

Date Tasted:
Country: Italy
Alcohol: 35%
Golden amber color. Fruity aromas and flavors of blackberry and blueberry danish, plum brandy, wax and cotton candy, and berry bubblegum with a syrupy, vibrant, moderately sweet medium body and a peppery, weird, medium finish that exhibits nuances of berry hard candy wrapper, hint of iodine and balsa, peppered nut shells, and bitter roots. A feisty, candied, berry-flavored brand for punches and shots.
