...I instantly loved the smell and flavor of cagnac the first sip I took in the summer of '70! (Remy Martin, VSOP) I actually decided to stop drinking cognac altogether for a number of years because I enjoyed it so very much I feared I might become an alcoholic. Today I have a snifter several times a week and consider it to be one of the few very special pleasures of life that never lets me down

Pairing cognac with food or making it into cocktails is just a marketing campaign to boost the sale in the modern era and selling it to the young generation, which is fine, but trust me this beverage is best enjoy neat, so you can appreciate the full profile of its aroma.

That's the only way I drink as I just don't like cocktails, but if someone likes cocktails, that's what VS and VSOP are for. Why not? Historically mixing cognac is just as traditional as neat. Just like whisky. Of course every producer wants to maximize their sales, that's why mixology and cocktails were invented. Well, and also to mask inferior liquor with citrus 😎

@WittyDroog

Well a Brandy Alexander is a fairly old cocktail, and while craft cocktails have made a resurgence it's not like cognac makers are doing the same pitches as Campari does. I think the guy in the guy in the video says it best when he says there's really no bad way to enjoy a good cognac. Personally I like drinking it neat but I also like it as a premium ingredient in something mixed, and to be clear a well thought out cocktail not just an expensive Long Island Iced Tea

Being an Aficionado of fine spirits does not make him/her an alcoholic. It makes them knowledgeable of their product in which they take pride. They're Classic. You don't drink Cognac to get drunk. You sip it to relax.

As a big fan of good cognac and brandy I find many similarities between good cognac and good bourbon - they are made in similar processes from completely different ingredients and mash but are distilled and aged in much the same way - much like two different sides if the same coin.

@alexk3088

Almost. Bourbon is made in charred barrels (charcoal on the inside), cognac is made in toasted barrels made from different species of oak. They are both similar and very different. Love both :-) also many bourbons are column distilled, while cognac is always double pot stilled.

I prefer mine neat in a bulb glass and with a nice cigar or some dark chocolate from Belgium or Switzerland. One of the best I've ever tasted was the Hennesy Paradis Imperial.

It surprised to me to discover that XO stands for "Extra Old" and VS "for "Very Special" - seems very unusual for the French to adopt English words in this manner? There must be some history to this decision. Export reasons, perhaps.

Can you please post the drink recipes that you sampled on the video?

I drink it either with a big fat Ice cube that fills almost the whole glass or served hot, pre heating the glass with hot water, then putting a bit cognac inside and spreding it all around and igniting it. after that the glass is nice and hot, then i put the cognac in. The flavor comes out 10 times more! you smell on it and a cognac vapor fills your nose and you can smell much more aromas.

alcohol drinks and tobacco smoke will never be the main stream like in 80's. that's why you have to dig into the information mostly by your own desire. not many teenagers would spend time on digging the alcohol drink history. for me, i drink from 18 of course. but i just drink for drunk in pubs making friends partying. just upto now im 40 and start concerning about notes and taste. and just understand the different of whisky from cognac and brandy.

Hennessey tastes pretty good. I drink it eeryday, neat.
