It's like a cognac version of fine wine, pairing with different food menus or subbing in for the perfect after-dinner aperitif. This legendary cognac house lies right in the very heart of the Cognac region and is widely considered one of the top cognac distilleries on the planet.Hennessy's secret weapons are patience and the excellent palates and wisdom of its master distillers. According to Yahoo Finance, plenty of people turned to cognac and champagne during the pandemic, perhaps as a small way to give themselves a premium treat while riding out the pandemic at home. Since it's not such a heavy cognac, you can serve it as an after-dinner cocktail or bring it to a holiday gathering or gala. Although many of Martell's recipes date back to its inception, it's always putting out new spins and blends, like Martell Cordon Bleu.

This will have been aged, usually for more than 30 years but in many instances, it is difficult to tell the exact age of Cognacs in this classification as they have been around for so long. Exclusively available in France, is entirely covered with a "chameleon" paint presenting a mixture of blue, yellow and green. In 1971 Kilian Hennessy spearheaded the company's merger with Moët et Chandon, to create Moët Hennessy which eventually went public and thrived financially.Although you'd be hard-pressed not to find a great cognac at Merlet, there are a few that truly stand out. However, although its VSOP is undoubtedly one-of-a-kind, there are plenty of other vital varieties, like the 1738 Accord Royal. The hallowed position of Cellar Master has been passed down through eight generations of the Fillioux Family, with Renaud Fillioux de Gironde at the helm today.

Boasting a perfect balance of aroma and taste, it’s great if you’ve tried lots of different brandies and are looking for a fuller-tasting brandy experience.

It's not as heady as other varieties, but you still get that signature cognac taste and velvety texture. Hardy's Prestige Collection is an exceptional example of ultra-aged cognacs with bright floral flavor and plenty of deep woody undertones. Hennessy is also used as an ingredient in cocktails and mixed drinks, and is commonly served in nightclubs and bars.Like many of our top picks, François Voyer comes from the Grande Champagne region and has produced high-quality cognacs for generations. Even if you have several cognacs in your home bar, there's a good chance that you don't have one quite like Monnet. Since 1838, Monnet has been honing its craft, fine-tuning its cognac distillation and maturation process. And the brand continues to reach out to all classes of drinkers, including those more familiar with whisky terminology when they added two age-stated Cognacs to their repertoire, The Courvoisier Vintage Connoisseur 12 Years and the Courvoisier Vintage Connoisseur 21 Years.

A unique aspect of Hennessy Cognac is that the responsibility for each and every eau-de-vie is not down to a single person. Pasquet does not add any sugar or caramel to its cognac and proudly uses native yeast to initiate the fermentation process. To make it, a tumbler glass is first "washed" with absinthe, which was once blamed for driving drinkers to insanity. Its Cognac Albane is another incredible choice made with Grande Champagne grapes and bursting with fruity, sweet notes.It established itself in the Army and in English politics, eventually earning the title of Baron Windlesham. Instead of using standard Cognac-region oak barrels, this distillery opts for authentic American Tennessee oak ones. At the 2009 VMAs interruption, Kanye West was reportedly intoxicated after drinking Hennessy and other various alcoholic drinks before his infamous interruption of Taylor Swift. Clean and gentle on the finish, the brandy may offer the lowest level of overall sweetness of any major VS bottling that I’ve encountered, which helps to make it arguably the best entry-level expression of Cognac on the market.
