This 73 cognac is exclusive to Passion for Whisky who recently also bottled a Pasquet Lot 71.
Nose: more robust and jammy, full of damsons, ripe quinces and mirabelles, with furniture wax and ginger biscuits in the background. Gourmand, as they say. Some thuja wood and hints of cedar, as well as some cardamom notes.
Mouth: an intense, minty profile, with wood polish, leather and glorious rancio. Still some plummy notes and raisins. Then orange peels and white pepper, as well as some tobacco leaves that leave a drying fingerprint. Earthy notes and sandalwood as it fades.
Finish: very long, very minty, with resinous notes, oranges and honeydew. Drying oak in the very end.
This shows more grittiness and power, underscored by the higher ABV. It’s a drier profile with more wood influence – both are quite excellent.
