2017 Ultimate Spirits Challenge

Hennessy VSOP Privilege Cognac (France), 40% abv, $54.00

95
Extraordinary,
Ultimate Recommendation

Tasting Note:

A refined and perhaps regal take on France’s premier brandy. The palate shows succulent flavors of crème brûlées, butter toffee, and baked honey. A pleasant oak-driven astringency provides a deft counterpoint to the indulgent sweet tones.
