In France, they pour Cognac.
In South Africa, we raise our glasses to Cape Brandy: a rich, oak-aged spirit born from the sun-drenched vineyards of the Cape Winelands and crafted with the same dedication, care, and mastery found in the world’s most iconic brandy regions.
Cape Brandy is not just our version, it’s our victory. Made from 100% pot still distillation, aged for a minimum of three years in oak casks, and distilled entirely from local South African grapes, Cape Brandy is pure, premium, and proudly ours.
At Wildebeest Brandewyn, we don’t imitate. We celebrate.
With every bottle of Wildebeest Brandewyn Kamoefleer and every Wildebeest Brandewyn Kraal, we carry the legacy of Cape Brandy into the present, full of flavour, layered with history, and made to create memories worth sharing.
These aren’t just brandies. They’re stories in a glass.
What Makes Cape Brandy So Special?
Cape Brandy isn’t just a name. It’s a guarantee of authenticity and craftsmanship. To be labelled Cape Brandy, a spirit must meet some of the highest standards in the world:
- 100% Double Pot Still Distilled – no additives, no shortcuts
- Aged for a Minimum of Three Years in oak barrels of less than 340 litres
- Produced in South Africa using grapes grown in the Cape Wine Regions of South Africa
- Matured and Bottled Locally, embracing our climate, soil, and soul
- Quality certified by an independent body
It’s a celebration of South African terroir, tradition, and taste, a product of passion and patience. Cape Brandy is allowed to breathe, age, and become something exceptional.
Our Commitment to Cape Brandy
From the refined elegance of Wildebeest Brandewyn Kamoefleer to the diverse richness of Wildebeest Brandewyn Kraal, our Cape Brandy collection is rooted in tradition and crafted for connection.
Each bottle tells a different story, but they all begin the same way: with respect for the craft, love for the land, and a belief that brandy should bring people together. Whether you’re gathered around a fire, toasting at a wedding, or celebrating life’s quiet victories, our Cape Brandy range invites you to savour something meaningful.
At Wildebeest Brandewyn, we believe that every pour should feel like a homecoming. That’s why we say our brandy isn’t just a drink.
It’s A Story Worth Sipping.
Let the World Taste Our Brandy! Cape Brandy is gaining recognition for all the right reasons: its quality, authenticity, and bold South African character. And Wildebeest Brandewyn is proud to be part of this journey, proving that true craft isn’t a trend, it’s a tradition.
So let France have its Cognac. We have Cape Brandy, and it’s every bit as bold, beautiful, and unforgettable.
