Review #71 - Cognac / Brandy #10 Bought for around 35 eur per 0.7L a while back, but didn't get the chance to open it since I focused on whisky :). Aspect - Orange-amber colour. Nose - Sweet, oranges, honey, vanilla, caramel, plum, grapes, peach, acidity, oak and oak spice, very floral...lavander, rose petals and white flowers. Oxidation brings forth a wonderful nuttyness...walnuts. Palate - Smooth and light front-end, mouthcoating, yet the youth is still noticeable on the mid-palate...slight prickliness, with oak spice...a bit harsh. Finish - Short-medium, honey, vanilla, floral again, basically the same aforementioned notes...with caramel and slight bitterness, and more oranges. Very pleasant. Pleasant, enjoyable...still a bit harsh, lighter than Remy Martin VSOP, but more aromatic than something like ABK6 VS.
