How to enjoy

It works perfectly either as an aperitif or digestif, as well as being a great Cognac for all types of mixology. Try it with tonic, sparkling water, or over ice - if you are feeling adventurous you could even place the bottle in the freezer. Naturally, it also makes an excellent base for a cocktail with its delectably smooth finish.
