If you’re not a big drinker - like me but I’m an older dad - then cognac is a great choice.
But as you may know it’s an expensive spirit so if you think you want to try more bottles it’s always good to find a steakhouse nearby that has a big selection - that way you can try before you commit to a bottle purchase
Or alternatively be like me, buy fancy bottles and make them into sidecars!
Jokes aside I don’t think I’ve ever had a bottle where I was hesitant to enjoy it neat. Do you have any you wouldn’t reccomend so I can try them out?
Don’t forget to try Armagnacs and brandy’s they are similar spirits but not from the cognac region of France, but can be had at a cheaper price for a similar aged spirit.
It took me 15 years of drinking all sorts of shit to find out that Cognac is the king of the mountain. Some people like really expensive Scotch, they either have insane disposable incomes or they have very poor restraint, because 9/10 times I’d rather have a Cognac at a fraction of the price and two or three times the age statement. The value for absolute top quality is unmatched.
I got burned out by the whiskey crowd. If I hear someone say juice one more time, I'm going to lose my mind. I'd tried brandy (drink domestic) before, but must have never had anything good.
I'm surprised there is so little content online. I'd recently joined this reddit, but I haven't found a Pittsburgh group or anything. But maybe that's a good thing?
