A FACT!!!

The Oficial Journal of France states :----

AT THE HỒNGKONG HOTEL.

"93,173 Hectos of Brandy were distilled from wins, September, 1896 to 1897. "2,353,129 Hectors of Brandy (?) were exported and consomed in France."

Vin, the exports and consumption of all kinds of Brandy were more than 25 times the quantity of real Brandy distilled.

It follows that a very small proportion of Brandy exported from France is made from Wine, We have for many years used a blend of FRENCH GRAPE BRANDY with WINE BRANDY from other countries. This enables us to sell a PURE WINE BRANDY at a moderate cost, and by Judicious blending the characteristics of the French Spirit are retained. Our spancial blends are :---
