This is my first cognac so forgive me my ignorance. Zesty nose with hints of orange and quince, tastes less fruity than the nose would suggest, rather spicy with hints of vanilla and grain, long finish but it leaves an unpleasant aftertaste in my mouth. Overall not very enjoyable.

Smooth and rich.

Stephen, Sep 26, 2020

Very smooth and light

Quite light and fruity with peach and pear notes on the nose. Sweet green apple and pear flavours. Pretty decent value, although there is a touch of alcohol harshness that comes through, which I guess shows its youth.

A 9 star vs!!! the fruit flavour reminds me of a more expensive bottle Hennessy xo to be exact can taste that it is not as old but well worth what it costs

Matt, Sep 13, 2020

Dry, slightly sweet. Apple and white grape flavors. Puckers my mouth.

First taste was a little harsh but the further I got got into the glass the better it became. I am a novis cognac drinker but I really enjoyed this one in the end.

Pretty good for the price

Delicious, smooth, probably one of the best cognac I have had.

Jason, May 31, 2020

Light with honey notes.

David, May 30, 2020

Great taste. Easy to sip

Craig, May 18, 2020

Not a cognac drinker, but wanted to give it a try so got the "Le Cognac" tasting box. This one was pretty smooth, but had a nice bite on the start. Good flavor and went down easy.

It is a good, intense, VS Cognac that has a delicate birth; while a fresh & bold life leads to a dry & zesty death with notes of grape, apricot, peach, orange zest, honey & almond.

surprisingly good. I bought the "LE COGNAC France's biggest Treasure" tasting box and I have to say this one is way better than the €115 and 8.1/10 stars LOUIS ROYER XO (gave it only 5 stars as averige). so after warming up Merlet in my palm and having a taste I have to say I'm probably gonna buy a bottle.

Easy to drink, slight burn but to be expected. Honestly, I enjoyed it for its price range.

Bruce, Dec 27, 2019

Tastes like I’m licking the inside of a Sherry Cask. And heavy fresh grape skin, sweet honey and pineapple.

Wilbbflum, Nov 20, 2019

Love itttt!!!!!

Susanna, Nov 9, 2019

This cognac was very good. I would buy another Bottle of this.

Troy, Oct 4, 2019

Upfront fruit and a zestiness as advertised. Dry finish with a little too much burn. Not great but for the price would be rather solid.

Darren, Jul 26, 2019

Very fruity and nice for beginners

Sotirios, Jun 19, 2019

Rated ten stars after tasting box arrived. Waited till I received my purchased bottle before I wrote a review. This stuff absolutely rocks!!! Just finished my first dram of the bottle and don’t want to stop. Going back for a second. This had just moved up to the number one spot on my short list of favorites. And the absolutely best part?......it’s extremely affordable. Which surprises me. I would pay three to 4 times what I paid because I already have on an assortment of bottles of bourbon, scotch and whisky which I DID pay that much more. I’m going to be try all of Merlet’s products.

Jeff, Jun 9, 2019

Very fruitful flavor for a cognac

Jesse, May 30, 2019

Sweet, lots of vanilla and sugar. Not overwhelming at all, very pleasant. Would definitely buy again.

Josh, Apr 26, 2019

When I tried the tasting box this was smooth and full of flavor, but when I got my bottle it was not even remotely the same taste. Not sure what happened but unless they had it around here I don't think I would buy it again

Angie, Apr 4, 2019

Smooth to the last sip

ISABEL, Feb 16, 2019

More flavor than the scent suggests.

Kevin, Dec 30, 2018

Not bad. Almond definitely comes through

Mr., Dec 16, 2018

VERY SMOOTH GREAT FOR SHARING

Maja, Dec 3, 2018

Great taste

Leisenring, Nov 3, 2018

This is a smooth cognac. The peach, grape, apricot and spice flavors are what stood out to me the most. Very nice.

Andrej, Oct 31, 2018

Simple one, but smooth.

Gareth, Sep 9, 2018

Fantastic. Loved the taste. And it was so light.

Anthony, Aug 9, 2018

Very nice initial taste. Transitions to a bit spicy and finishes honey sweet.

Dave, Jun 15, 2018

Solid sip with a pleasant honeyed finish

John, May 16, 2018

Very Smooth with a nice finish

Chad, May 12, 2018

Liked it. Hint of grapes is pleasant.

Nicki, Apr 29, 2018

This is the first cognac I’ve ever tried. Smooth, clean flavor.

Scott, Mar 24, 2018

This is the first cognac I've ever had. It's intriguing enough I'm looking forward to trying more. This one lacks a sophistical flavor profile, but the subtle fruit makes it enjoyable. After several sips of it neat I added a small ice cube which really softened the slight bitterness. Far more drinkable that way IMO (the water helped pronounced the "baking spice" flavor mentioned in the flavor spiral).
