Utilizing grapes grown in the Grande Champagne region, Ferrand Cognacs are not fine-filtered after fermentation and are distilled on the lees. Both of these steps in the production yield a more robust and full fruit experience on the palate. The Ambre expresses apricots, oranges, honey, and pears with just a touch of vanilla.
This is my go-to Cognac for cocktails. It's a true workhorse of a brandy at a great price. Best part is it's really delicious on its own as well! Delicate notes of vanilla and flowers develop on the nose along with stone fruits while delicious pear and apple pastry notes envelope the palate. For the price this is an extremely refined, elegant, and well-made spirit. Try it in this equally refined Manhattan variation: Night Owl, 2oz. Pierre-Ferrand Ambre Cognac, 0.5oz. Punt E Mes, 0.5oz. Lustau East India Solera Sherry, and 0.25oz. Van Oosten Batavia Arrack; Stir all ingredients over ice and strain into a coupe (Alex Day, Death & Co.).
