Rémy Martin 1738 Accord Royal Cognac

Dried fruit and toffee are there, but muted by intense oak-driven vanilla and spice; a few minutes in the glass and a few drops of water work wonders, taming the latter two and bringing fruit and toffee to the forefront. Aftertaste is surprisingly long. A fine drink that probably goes great with a cigar, but not quite enough to convert this whisky drinker. Santé!

New to cognac, pretty enjoyable!
