BERRY BROS. & RUDD
British wine and spirit merchant Berry Bros. & Rudd has
launched the world’s most expensive sherry, the Barbadillo Vesos
- Limited to 100 bottles, the Amontillado sherry is born from
‘Los Niños’ (the children’s casks) in Barbadillo and originates
from the 19th Century, each priced at £8,000. The deep mahogany
liquid fills the palate with intense nutty, woody and rich dried-
fruit flavours and is housed in the finest crystal glass bottle carved
and etched with gold.

VERTU
A nod to its predecessor, the Aster Smartphone is Vertu’s
newest collaboration with Stockholm-based artist Carina Sohl,
the Aster Leaf. Aside from precision engineering and the latest
technology, the new invention boasts patterns of wild natural
raspberry leaves, made with the real plant, pressed into soft,
aniline leather – a first for Vertu. On the technical end, the
Aster Leaf features Dolby Digital Plus virtual surround sound
and Hasselblad-certified imaging alongside Vertu’s portfolio of
services.
