Old bottle Nose: a lot of dried fruits! Old plums especially! Some spices and after a few sips, tangerine! Taste: sweet plum, oily and slightly sticky and then tangerine again! Aftertaste: short I couldn't get the vanilla taste like other people do but first sip is a lot of dried fruits and last sip I get the tangerine taste! Not as complex as some whisky but the fruitiness and smoothness of this cognac is why a fav among some old folks!

A balanced, VSOP Cognac by Otard Chateau de Cognac in Cognac, France. The eaux-de-vie used for this blend come from the Grande Champagne, Petite Champagne, Borderies & Fins Bois. It has an aromatic birth with notes of flowers, pear, linden trees, oak, tobacco & a hint of vanilla; while an elegant life adds notes of vanilla, toffee, caramel, earthy tobacco, tannins from oak & apricot; that led to a balanced death of medium length.

Nothing special at all. Just a straight forward cognac flavour with rich aroma at start and strong but not very pleasant aftertaste. I don't want to buy it second time. Courvousier & Tesseron are far better.

Noses like a sweet tangerine mixed with vanilla. Mildly oily in the palate, very balanced floral tones, far-away banana hint. Tender finish and highly refreshing.
Sweet smell, hint og vanilla. A little strong taste, mild aftertaste with hint of spices. Good price and a good cognac for regular days
