Luis Felipe is the name of a high-quality brandy , that of the Bodegas Rubio in Spanish La Palma del Condado is marketed.
The oak barrels in which this very old brandy matures were discovered in 1893 when Bodegas Loewenthal-Morales was founded . They had been reserved for Antoine d'Orléans, Duke of Montpensier and son of the French bourgeois king Louis-Philippe I , who had resided in Seville before his death.
