Small houses are the way to go, until you try some you will never know what Cognac truly is.

he did say reasonably priced i will change what i said to thay are my fav reasonably priced cognac as that is what i ment

After becoming involved with this thread I went through my stash of hidden bottles of libations that I have had for at least 15 years and I came across a bottle of St-Remy French Napoleon Brandy V.S.O.P., Is it a decent brandy?

I also found a bottle of Courvoisier "Le Cognac de Napoleon" V.S. from Jarnac France. What about this one, is it a decent Cognac?
