With an average age of 15 years, this family owned Cognac is a steal. Delicate orchard fruit & baking spices are apparent on the nose & palate. The finish is long with notes of bitter chocolate and dried fruit.
Spirits that are sophisticated and easy to enjoy are not as bountiful as I’d like them to be. So that’s why Guillon-Painturaud deserves a metaphorical pat on the back for doing just that. An inviting aroma of fruits, black tea, pollen, and even oiled leather. These are delicate scents but in no way covered up by fumes of alcohol. The palate appeals to you whisky drinkers out there. Polished texture, creamy malt, yeasty biscuits, dried stone fruit, and vanilla pudding. Sure, you could sip this from a snifter and gas on about its loveliness. But what makes it great is you can tilt it back knowing nothing about cognac, or spirits, or anything and say, “Mmm yummy!”
