Fifty Best Cognac
|
|
|
 |
Normandin-Mercier
Petite Champagne Vieille
30 yrs old
(From a single year, bottled upon request.)
Petite Champagne
44% abv
Rich aromas, dry finesse, touch of spice. Pleasant rancio, with hints of curry, tobacco, jam and jelly. Great length.
|
Laurent Merlin
Hors Pair
50 yrs old
Triple "S" / Petite Champagne
42% abv
A perfect blend of a single vineyard averaging some 50 years. Smoky aromas of fruits and flowers coexist in perfect unison with hints of dry wood. Outstanding length, roundness and pleasure. An awesome Cognac.

A. de Fussigny
Trés Vieille Grande Champagne
45 yrs old
Grande Champagne
42% abv
The breed and power of this Extra drape the palate with all the warmth and luxury of soft, snug cashmere. Each fold reveals an expected or surprising aroma in a swirl of birch, toasted pistachio, Caribbean vanilla, and sultanas; woven on the tongue into a harmonious pattern of extraordinary proportions.
|
Camus
Jubilée
Blend of the oldest stock of Camus
40% abv
A mature symphony of fine leather, old cigar boxes, and just a hint of smokiness. An exhilarating fusion of oak and honey, majestically persistent.

I like the list but missing some smaller brands or new products like Conjure. My favorite brand is Hine Cognac. It's an awesome brand with a good availability even in the US

Where's the Armangnac? The slutty, slightly overweight sister. And, tho its not Cognac... Germain Robin brandies from California are spectacular! Made from Pinot Noir by a former Cognac distiller, loads of honey, dried currants and spice... Their "VS" knocks the socks of many a Cognac VSOP!

The top 3 cognacs are commercially and unacceptably "sweet". Maybe fine for NBA players. And, vanilla is not something I think of as a positive in cognac like in Kelt. As Doug says "If you haven't heard of it it is probably very good"-- Gourmel was tops, but I am not sure anymore. I am a fan of Dom. Giraud which I buy by the case every few months. The Beaulon, a bit wshort in the finish but far better than most out there.

Well if you actually travel to france to purchase Remy Martin you don't get any additives, casue I've tried their VSOP US Import and Non Import and there is a HUGE difference.

"Stick to Remy Martin, Courvoisier,and Hennessy. These premium brands offer the best in each price range." Ha ha ha, you gave me a hearty laugh! The 100% Folle Blanche 7-year-old Chateau Beaulon will knock the socks off of any of the "big four" Cognacs, until you get into their really pricey stuff. With Cognac, if you haven't heard of it, it's probably very good, and likely devoid of boise additive. Stay away from the big four.

Stick to Remy Martin, Courvoisier,and Hennessy. These premium brands offer the best in each price range. I admit there are many on this list I have not tried, but have had the sample a wide range of the ones listed. Yes, price matters! Louis X111 is heaven but at what price?
