Exotic, tropical and unmistakably Navarre
The most exotic pour of the flight, dry yet bursting with tropical fruit. Mango and papaya on the nose with ginger, honeyed apple and sandalwood, then papaya, passionfruit and guava on the palate with a hint of eucalyptus, closing earthy on sandalwood and walnut oil. A little polarising, and all the...
Top tier Cognac
This was a blind buy for me and made my decision to purchase based on others reviews. I’m so glad I made the choice to purchase this amazing cognac. The nose has tons fruit and the the taste is fantastic with fruits, oak, a little leather and honey. I enjoyed it neat and the finish is long. You...
Beautiful!
I’m not surprised why so many people regard this beautiful expression of Cognac so highly. Reminds me lying on a French equatorial beach. Such a lovely aroma and taste of tropical fruit. A tropical punch bowl with a kick. Not disappointed at all. Lovely. Thank you Jacky and all at Cognac Expert.
A Classic
There’s a wonderful richness to the nose from the first moment. Plums and prunes, mango, hints of mint and tobacco, with some old leather. Plenty of old oak as well. Magnificent. Deep and a dark like an intense compote with gentle sweetness that rolls into rich, spices. It’s like a fruitcake...
Best cognac I have had so far THANK U JACKY
This is by far my favorite Cognac. The bold and smooth robust flavor with the finish of the walnut with the mango and the aromatic spice! This is truly an extreme palate revelation. The only problem is once you start, you can’t stop. I have to call on the cognac god (Jacky Navarre) to help me stop...
A wonderful surprise!
A wonderful cognac! On one side, with so many positive reviews it wasn't a surprise. But still, when I tasted it for the first time, there was that "wow" moment - A perfect balance between age, complexity, and aromas. Fruity, with hints of floral, wood, and a bit of spice.
The Hors d'Age Cognac - Aromatherapy Session
At the opening - the initial aroma of sweet sour-cream honey light port wine with hints of flowers, like rose petals. Hints of pastry or freshly-baked crepes. No ethanol spirit smell. Alcohol is integrated into the cognac aroma. In The Glass: First 5-7 minutes scent of sour-cream honey,...
Smooth criminal
The sip was tasteful and full of body it was exceptionally robust. I didn’t think that Navarre Souvenir Impérial Hors d’Age Grande Champagne would be sold at the price of a beggar and be so good. Get this one just for the hell of it, you’ll see it was worth it ten folds.
Great cognac, multi-leveled with great finish
I just finished my second bottle of this and will be buying more since it's becoming one of my favorites. It has so many flavors going on I find it difficult to pick out one particular fruit or spice. It's very well balanced between fruit, spice, and some earthy tones. Very good lasting finish.

My favourite of the whole blind flight
Tasted blind against fourteen other Hors d'Age cognacs, this was my clear winner, and I was delighted when the reveal showed Bache-Gabrielsen. Honey, dark berries and a gentle oak on the nose, a touch of floral and vanilla, then a velvety palate of red fruits, cinnamon and nutmeg. The finish is exceptionally...
Sweet Seduction - Bache Gabrielsen Hors d´Age
Dark amber colour. Lots of sweet dried fruits, fine rancio, honey and spices on the nose. The palate is quite sweet with dried fruits, honey and spices (vanilla, cinnamon, cloves) - the (for me) overdone sugar lessens the finesse and the tension of this cognac. The finish is long, but too sweet...
Quality benchmark
Bache Gabrielsen Hors d'Age has been a benchmark among Norwegian cognac enthusiasts for what a high quality cognac should taste like. Sometimes we have a glass of this cognac on the side during a tasting for comparison reasons. This is an old blend from Grande Champagne, quite sweet and with a nice...
A symphony of flavor
This is a top 5 maybe top 3 Cognac I’ve ever experienced (and experience is the correct word). Unbelievable complexity, fruit forward, rancio, so much going on and yet balanced. It’s honestly hard to describe. There’s a reason most everyone raves about this bottle.
Deep Dark Expression
Nose: Oak, something creamy, spices, rancio, dark fruits with honey, some lighter orchard fruit notes Palate: Sweet, vanilla,dried apricots, some spices like cinnamon. Long finish I prefer cognacs with more pronounced fruit flavors but this is still a marvelous cognac that leans more towards the...
The first bottle that I ever bought a second time
I have a review on this that I posted a couple of years ago. I liked it a lot back then, but actions speak louder than words - this is the first bottle of cognac that I have ever purchased again. Just received it and decided to enjoy with a friend and it did not disappoint. The display box is...
Fantastic
I am truly a cognac connoisseur and have tasted over 75 houses and 200 different blends. And I refer only to bottles with XO and more. This cognac is one of my top 25 cognacs and is the best value for money. You should definitely try this cognac for yourself.
Excellent long-aged cognac
Aromas become richer with time. Rancio aroma reminiscent of fine black tea. Plum. Some spices, including cinnamon. Apricot, slight vanilla, fine wood, slight floral notes. The characteristics of Grand Champagne are well expressed. The taste is predominantly spicy but mildly stimulating. Flavours...

Beautiful borderies
This is a cognac I have at home. This is good affordable borderies that it is easy to enjoy. It is nice looking with a clear golden color. On the nose it is quite rich with vanilla, floral notes, and also darker notes like cacao, leather and some tobacco. It needs some air to open up. In mouth it...
Lovely 40yr Borderies
Beautiful dark amber, looks every bit its age. This one has opened up since the neck pour and really is a nice complex pour. Accurate description above on the nose. I find a bit more spice (baking spices) than the nose suggests, decent rancio, smooth with candied fruits and caramel. Overall a really...
Grateaud Hors d´Age Borderies - a fine and complex Cognac
Shiny deep amber colour. A complex nose on fine spices, caramelized apples (apple tart), nuts, roasted nuts. On the palate sweetness of baked apples and pears, fine pastry and roasted nuts again; the alcohol is perfectly integrated. The finish is quite long on spices and nuts, also roasted almonds;...

Palato: Al palato, l'esperienza è altrettanto ricca e sfaccettata. I sapori di nocciola si fondono perfettamente con le note dolci e caramellate di pere e mele, creando un gusto armonioso. Le spezie e il pepe riemergono, aggiungendo strati di complessità e profondità. La dolcezza naturale sottolinea la ricchezza dell'acquavite, mentre l'età conferisce una raffinatezza rara, pur conservando una vivace freschezza che smentisce i suoi anni. Si sa che il Cognac ha un'età avanzata, ma è ancora vivace e fresco. anche il 43% di abv è perfetto.
Finale: Il finale è medio-lungo, con le spezie e la frutta dolce caramellata che persistono sul palato. La continuità dei sapori di nocciola e naturalmente dolci assicura un finale ricco e soddisfacente.

80 years and it shows
Although I know other Cru's produce great cognacs there's just something about really old Grand Champagne cognac that is just hard to top. This Tiffon is so complex, smooth, the right amount of sweetness and rancio to create an iconic experience. The current 94 score on CE is, in my opinion spot on....
A Toast to Tiffon
I found this gem of a Cognac purely through the reviews of fellow Cognac Expert supporters. I was very excited to receive the shipment today from “my good friends in France.” They did not disappoint. After letting it rest in the glass, I was able to enjoy the nose. Ample rancio and deep....
Outstanding well aged Cognac!!!!
Deep, dark, lovely fruits greet the nose, and there is nothing fresh or young about this! As it opens, subtle oak and cardamom appear, and I have no idea where the cardamom came from? After several more minutes in the glass, nice rancio appears in the form of nuts and fruit, showing the age of this...
Worth the wait
Deep amber with antique gold at the edges, a true color, nothing artificially aged here. Fruity and aggressive, becoming more complex as minutes pass. Warm, spicy, old wood. A long finish enjoyable to the end, it’s said that the youngest in this blend is 80 years, it was worth the wait.
Beautiful old elegant cognac
I haven't tried this version from Tiffon before. I guessed it was the same as Tiffon Grande Champagne, but it is not. The aromas are different, and this cognac has a somewhat higher ABV. This is a cognac with a quite dark golden color. At first it is a bit reserved on the nose, but after some time...

Profumo: fruttato e deciso, con ciliegie e prugne fresche. Rovere francese, vaniglia, cardamomo, mandorle tostate e marmellata di ribes rosso seguono i frutti, insieme a un delizioso rancio.
Palato: Quercia, equilibrato con una forte dose di ricca frutta secca e spezie calde. Noci, note di legno vecchio e rancio dominano il finale. Semplicemente meraviglioso.

Nice Artisan Cognac!
This is a very nice cognac. I like trying different brands to enjoy the great wide variety that cognac has to offer. This is a wonderful offering from Lavenat, I had been aware of. It is very dark amber on the eye with hints of gold. On the nose my main aroma was a crème brûlée, light spice and...
A very nice XO from Lavenat
The colour is a beautiful shiny copper. On the nose baked apples, cacao together with fine spices and rancio (dried mushrooms). On the palate the cognac is mature, but also fresh on orchard fruits, dried fruits and chocolate with a lively acidity. The finish is medium to long on roasted nuts and...
Deserves Its High Score. Decadent
The first smell is baked apples. Then, notes of caramel, wood, nuttiness, and a distant memory of very old high-quality plum brandy (like 20+ years). You can feel the age of the spirit, but there is also a certain very pleasant freshness that contributes to a very fine balance. Dried fruits and...
Lavenat XO
An absolute winner...competes with BIG BRANDS easily. Not cheap but it is worth any penny. My wife prefers it to Hennessy XO and I know why...it lingers in your nose and has this unique cognac aftertaste, a very long one. An X0 in his own class,,,has to come to me again very soon....IMPRESSING! A...
Excellent Titulaire de Fins Bois
Earlier reserved in the nose it shows itself strong in the palate with a prolonged descent typically Fins Bois. (Translated from French) Original review: Plus tôt réservé dans le nez Il se montre fort au palais avec une descente prolongée typiquement Fins Bois.

Very nice but does not beat my reference cognac
This is a pleasant drink. It is not as floral as I prefer and does not knock Park Borderies XO of the pedestal. The nose has toffee/caramel with wood in there also. Bottle is well presented. I suppose I won’t revisit this cognac, i am halfway in and will keep it for sharing before moving on to...
Incredible balance of fruit and spice. An absolute steal!
Very lovely fresh fruit greets the nose initially, with perhaps a touch of peach. As it opens, the peach comes forward slightly, but this is a most lovely bouquet of different fruit and dried fruits. It is surprisingly big and full bodied in the mouth, really coating the palate. The palate starts...
Super value
Vanilla and a little creamy chocolate, prunes and a touch of rhubarb, plenty of floral notes to add interest. Nice creamy arrival, followed by waves of stewed fruit, coconut, outbursts of fruity sugar, and silky spices. Nice spicy finish, with traces of old tobacco, cinnamon, and a little pepper. Delicious...
Absolute Must Try!
The Cognac is very smooth, with a floral and fruity taste on the palate. You taste the notes of lemon, lime, and apricot. It has a mild spicey finish that is compatible with the taste of honey. The taste is extremely smooth and very easy to drink. This was an excellent Cognac. I would highly recommend...
Very Aged X.O. Nutty-Leather Old Port Winy-Cognac
At the opening - buttery scent of sweet dried fruits. No ethanol spirit smell. Alcohol is integrated into the cognac aroma. In the glass - first 5-7 minutes scent of caramel and the bouquet mix of old port, leather and rancio aromas In the glass - 10-15 minutes matured smell of aged alcohol drink...
Excellent variety of fruits and spice.
I get lots of various fruit flavors and aromas and some spice. I prefer a little less spice, but that's just me. This is pretty typical though. Overall, it's very enjoyable with lots of lingering flavors. Good complexity. Very good cognac for the money.
Exceptional quality and refinement
I first had this cognac while in Switzerland. I could not believe the aroma and refined taste. It has a fruit forward taste with a pleasant smooth finish. I knew I would not be able to find this in the US so I only had this when I really had time to enjoy it. How happy I was that I could get this...

Excellent value wonderful quality rancio bomb
Straight from barrel to bottle with nothing added (no colour) and nothing taken away (no chill filtration), unblended, as it comes just as it should be, and well worth the wait (distilled the year before I was born). No fancy packaging just well made spirit. Lovely nose, delightful palate and seemingly...

A nice cognac in a one-of-a-kind decanter. Round and elegant, with hints of tobacco leaves, almond and freshly cut flowers, it's a perfect fit for a warm and sunny day.

Palato: Arrotondato e morbido, con un palato prevalentemente dolce, un accenno di liquirizia e un finale leggermente nocciolato.

Little bottle, big taste
At first pour the nose contains a lot of heat, not unexpected with a cognac bottled at 49%. In the glass it holds a pale honey color. Upon tasting there is a bit of red apple and plenty of black pepper spice. The finish is long with just the linger of alcohol. A pleasant drink to finish one’s night...
A rustic elegance, in the style of Country Life
Everything is so sweet here. Bord de Mer, that smells like holidays, with a little white wine and oysters. And this cognac… Colour: full gold. Nose: we find the slightly more rustic side of cognac, which is no displeasure as it brings us even closer to malts. Nougat and touches of fino, sending...
