This rich, supple Cognac is a liquid expression of a vintage leather club chair. The nut-brown spirit has big aromas of creme brulee, toffee, cigar tobacco and cocoa. After an initial sweetness on the tongue, it finishes relatively dry with lingering caramel, raisin, leather and orange peel flavors, and a bracing alcohol bite.
