Bio:

French wine, and the concept of terroir, captured my interest early on. Naturally, curiosity took me to spirits, in particular Cognac. Today I'm proud to be a member of the Cognac Expert team managing B2B projects, working on Cognac Expert Originals, and writing bottle reviews for the English Blog. I love to taste anything and everything - rum/rhum, whisky(ey), Armagnac, etc. - but no other spirit grabs my attention quite like Cognac, and all of its subtleties and nuance. Santé !

Tiffon 1995 Fins Bois

Polecany 82 /100

Nose: On first pour, there is a youthful spirit nip. The Cognac needs air. After some quality air time comes oozy juicy golden raisins in syrup, tinned pears, caramelized pears, greengage plums, ginger, and what I’d consider just a general earthiness. I quite like the nose once it gets air; it’s spirit-y yet seems to be heavily focused on white fleshed fruits, raisins, and syrups. There is something almost challenging to the nose, but I appreciate the sincerity of everything. Curiously enough, this is not the first medium age Fins Bois I’ve tasted that have these syrupy white fruits and other earthy qualities.

Palate: This Tiffon is extremely soft and cushioned, maybe too much so. Some tasters might desire a touch more structure. There is a very nice natural sweetness coming from the inherent fruitiness. As the nose gave away, the fruits were all raisins, tinned pears, applesauce, white fruit cup, ginger, and rhododendron honey - a fantastic honey, try it if you can find it. This is more a Cognac of balance and finesse than one of flavor intensity and textural intensity. Thus far, this is a lovely Cognac - not an extroverted Cognac but more of an introspective one.

Finish: This finish is relatively straightforward, keeping with the soft quiet temperament of the Cognac from the nose and palate, which is a good thing - no split personalities here. The Cognac finishes with a light honey natural sweetness and a cooling anise or licorice note. Then it slowly fades away begging the taster for another sip.
