Hardy Vines date back to the 1870's, the Pre-phylloxera days. Its grapes are composed of a 100% French Colombard and this eaux-de-vie is pure and unblended at a natural strength of 41% volume. Hints of chocolate and coffee, big oak and great balance adds to the complexity. A rare Cognac for those who demand the finest. When perfection is gone, c'est fini, for it can never be duplicated. |

Pierre Ferrand The aromas are rich with oaky vanilla and chocolate with a hint of curry, then jasmine tea, honeysuckle and walnut appear. The bouquet continues to develop with candied fruit aromas, spicy saffron, ginger and honey, mixed with nutmeg and cedar wood. Sheer velvet on the palate. The flavours are rich and concentrated, with superb balance. The aftertaste persists for up to 12 minutes. |

Richard Hennessy Balanced and complex, the rich bouquet slowly releases a succession of aromas that have built up over the years: vanilla, spices, pepper and delicately fragrant flowers. In the mouth, the infinitely refined texture reveals an extraordinary palette of flavors that blends spices, the subtle essence of ripe fruit and the finesse of oak. |

Hennessy A veritable fireworks display of spices and peppery notes, softened by the fragrant scent of flowers. Finesse and elegance are the major characteristics. Perfectly harmonious in the mouth, Paradis Extra reveals itself to be smooth, full-bodied and long-lasting on the palate. Force and finesse, plus the delicate flavor of rancio give this cognac its remarkable balance. |

Daniel Bouju XO A stunningly multi-layered, complex bouquet with succulent smoky and ripe fruit. Sweet right out of the gate; more pensive, concentrated and soft cheese-like by virtue of the elevated level of rancio. The finish is long and dry to off-dry. A clinic for anyone to learn about rancio. A best buy. |

Rémy Martin A blend of 1200 different 40 to 100 years old eaux-de-vie in specially crafted barrels called tiercons. The first nose of Louis XIII is incredibly rich, combining floral aromas with spicy fragrances. Jasmine is a dominant note, highlighting the saffron. It is then followed by the five Chinese spices, punctuated by the scents of Havana. The second nose blends the perfumes of flowers and exotic fruit more precisely. Rich and harmonious, with nuances of dried fruit and the ambiance of frankincense. Subtle tonalities of fig and sandalwood on the palate. Infinite flavours are revealed in the mouth. |

Le Réviseur Amber in colour The initial aroma has soft oak and vanilla, developing to a very elegant rancio with delicious notes of dried fruit and nuts. Soft and lingering palate with licorice and rancio flavours. |
