Baron Otard VSOP
(0.7l, 40%)
The Otard family traces its origins back to the middle of the 9th century to a Norwegian Viking named Ottar.
Otard Cognac house, also known as Chateau de Cognac, was founded in 1795. This little Chateau was also the birthplace of King Francois 1 of France.
The royal Chateau of Cognac was bought by Baron Otard in 1795 for its unique ageing conditions. Situated on the same level as the river Charente, the relative humidity reaches 90%. The walls are 3 meters thick enabling the temperature to remain constant at 15°C throughout the year.
The eaux-de-vie used for this blend come from the Grande Champagne, Petite Champagne, Borderies and Fins Bois. Age is unclear, but based on its flavour profile at least an average of 8 years old.

ISABEL,
Tastes like a light Irish whiskey.

Pretty smooth. Very drinkable

Mr.,
Not a big fan of tobacco favoring
arne,
this left me unimpressed. the pear is interesting but I’m not one for fruity cognacs. the tobacco doesn’t do much for me either, and overall this cognac falls a little flat throughout. didn’t like the smell of it either
