My favorite brandy is E&J XO. I've never found a better brandy, no matter the price nor type - be it brandy, cognac or even armagnac. Today I went out and couldn't find it at my liquor store, but found some of their XO "Extra Smooth" instead. I found it pleasantly sweet, almost like drinking straight caramel syrup. To explain why I couldn't find my brand at the liquor store, and after some digging on the internet, it seems as though E&J has replaced their line of XO with this XO "Extra Smooth". What a terrible waste! E&J XO is a great brandy that I drink when not fancying a sweet taste, and this new "Extra Smooth" would make a great digestif or desert brandy; these two would literally complete my brandy collection. Can anyone confirm that E&J is no longer selling their normal XO and have entirely replaced it with this new XO Extra Smooth?
