Brandy XO is a beautiful and historic spirt made through the distillation of wine. Our brandy is produced and distilled in Languedoc, France - Handcrafted in small batches and blended from venerable eaux-de-vie vineyards and aged in French oak. Each bottle of our XO Shoe Brandy is hand made by our partners at a bottle art manufacturing company in Ukraine. A scabbard is a sheath for holding a sword, knife, or other large blade. ... Scabbards have been made of many materials over the millennia, including leather, wood, and metals such as brass or steel.
