This is my first cognac review. Found this at the local liquor store and from reading reviews seemed like a good starting point for learning about cognac.
Nose: The nose is sweet with fruity and floral notes. Peaches and spring perennial flowers are what come to mind immediately.
Palate: The fruity notes appear again, accompanied by a cake like sweetness. Teeters on becoming too sweet without becoming so.
Finish: All the sweet notes fade into a lovely black tea. It stays around for maybe 30 seconds before fading.The finish is by far the most pleasant part of the cognac.
The flavors of this cognac were all pleasant and they worked well together. My complaint is that it seems to lack complexity, fullness, and intensity. Perhaps those would come with more age and a higher proof but in its current form it does leave me wanting a little more. Given the price though it’s a pleasant drink and a great value.
À votre santé!
