WE CARRY OVER 35 COGNAC AND BRANDY VARIETIES!
Cognac, named after the town of Cognac in France, is a brandy, which is produced in the region surrounding the town. It must be made from at least 90% Ugni Blanc, Folle Blanche, or Colombard grapes. The rest of the cognac can consist of ten selected grapes. However, most cognac is made from Ugni Blanc only. It must be distilled twice in copper pot stills and aged at least 2 and 1/2 years in French oak barrels in order to be called cognac. If not, it may not be called cognac, nor sold as such. Brandy produced elsewhere in France, or in other parts of the world, cannot properly be called "cognac".

Conjure $31.99 750ml Hand-crafted by connoisseurs Chris Bridges and third-generation master-blender, Philippe B. Tiffon, this signature cognac uses a highly selective blend of thirty to forty eaux-de-vie, aged in fifty-year-old Limousin oak barrels.

Jacques Cardin $21.99 750ml Jacques Cardin is a golden brown color with hues of amber as you swirl it around. The golden colors bounce off the light while a darker amber plays around in the center of the glass. The liquid streams like long sad tears down the side of the glass in perfect unison, almost eerie in its synchronization.
