Baron Otard VSOP
(0.75l, 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.

The wine used for Cognac is very dry, acidic, and thin, but excellent for distillation and aging.

Karel,
sun in a bottle
Ott,
you get what you pay for
Toshinao,
Nothing special but not bad either. Compared to others it tastes a little bland and leaves something to be desired after the sip.
Bruce,
Tastes like a fruity scotch. A little disjointed in its flavor profile but I wouldn’t turn it down.
Clive,
Just opened the bottle & poured a generous amount & just finished it, it was crisp, very smooth & a very pleasant experience really liked this 1
