Nose - cherry, plum, raisin, grape, apple, mint, chocolate, sweet oak, cinnamon, allspice, toffee, sweet vanilla, leather, almond, orange zest, earthiness, mild to moderate ethanol burn. Taste - cherry, raisin, grape, apple tart, orange zest, spearmint, cocoa, sweet oak, toffee, leather, creamy vanilla, walnut, almond, cinnamon, allspice, clove, black pepper, ginger, mild alcohol bite, finishing long with mint, baking spice, chocolate, and dried fruit flavors. This cognac is deep and rich, with a nice long finish. It’s significantly better than their Sélection offering. While there is a bit of sourness of the palate and the mouthfeel seems a bit thin, this is a really nice sipper. Many thanks to @ContemplativeFox for providing the sample.
