In the 1930s, the quiet fishing town of Hermanus in South Africa witnessed an extraordinary event in which a lone southern right whale, later named Wendy,
became stranded on the town’s shore. The local community came together to
guide her back to the ocean. Grateful for their kindness, Wendy returned each
year from Antarctica to the same cove where she had been rescued, often with
her calves by her side. Her visits became such a popular spectacle that it inspired
the creation of the annual Hermanus Whale Festival, one of the world’s premier
whale watching events.
Much like Wendy’s return to Hermanus, Whale Tale Brandy is a tribute to the
enduring bonds that stand the test of time. So raise a glass to her legacy and the
stories that bring us closer.
