Since 1772, the year in which Thomas Osborne Mann founded Osborne in El Puerto de Santa María, his knowledge, and skill in the production of brandies have been assiduously refined over the passing of the years.
Since those origins we have inherited the very pillars of this incomparable legacy, our bodegas, monumental buildings well over a century old and situated in a unique enclave where they are known as “cathedrals” thanks to their height, their arches, and their layout.
This is a very rich legacy indeed.
