About this bottle
Cognac, a region known for its historic estates, is not typically associated with innovation. However, Bache-Gabrielsen offers a Cognac that has been finished for a minimum of 6 months in first-fill Tennessee oak barrels. The original brandy, primarily sourced from the Fins Bois region, is made solely from the ugni blanc grape, which is common in the area.

A smoky flavor, reminiscent of whiskey. An unusual and enjoyable taste, though not traditional cognac. It's good, and I would purchase it again.
A hint of vanilla and oak.
Good taste, round and smooth.
