Braastad VSOP Reserve Cognac

Tasted on various occasions, once buying a 0.5L bottle for 22 euros or so, and subsequently a 1L bottle for 40 euros. Nose - Alcohol, oak-forward, with mild drier fruit, some spice and honey. Taste - Dry oaky woodiness, with some spice, dried fruit (same as on the nose), a bit of honey and vanilla, without a very creamy / oily mouthfeel. Finish - Short-medium, dry, slightly tannic. I find the oaky dryness and lack of sweetness to be slightly one-dimensional, lacking depth. For example the Remy Martin VSOP (higher price) has a much more complex and approachable flavour, sharing similarities to the Braastad VSOP, but with additional sweetness and creaminess.

A rich, Brandy by Master Blender Richard Braastad in Cognac, France made with estate-grown grapes from the Fin Bois & Grand Champagne regions. It has an aromatic birth with notes of tree fruits, dried fruits, herbs & spices; while a mild & rich life adds notes of apple, pear & green pepper; that led to a fruity finish with notes of pepper, chocolate, oak & vanilla.

Fine sweet smell fruity. A bit to much spirit taste, little aftertaste, little taste overall No need to buy, but an ok cognac Better after 15 min of rest. Litt besk

Ничего специального. Запах спирта с лёгким ароматом персика. Мне показался хуже чем VS других производителей.

Sweet with a hint of green peppers and dates.
