Hello I am Theodor. I am in love with Cognac, started out in 2016 with regular tastings. Then had to do a pause for some time and I am back in 2021.

I have a passion and love for all spirits, but particularly world brandy and world whisk(e)y. The great people at Cognac-Expert have greatly increased my exposure to not only more Cognac, but smaller producers who are doing phenomenal things!! Love you all!! Cheers!!

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 !

Based in San Francisco, CA, I grew up on a vineyard in Europe. I am avid wine, and scotch enthusiast, and I have been exploring Cognacs and Armagnacs as a newly found passion.

Young, crisp fruit greets the nose in the form of green apples and pear, almost reminding me of a young Calvados....

LÉSSENTIEL A12 - a really fine young cognac
30 Sep 2022
A fascinating young cognac with a complex fruity nose without wood or rancio, very fresh, citrus notes, pears, yellow plums. Rather dense and oily on the palate, also on lemons, pears and apples. Juicy and fresh - a pleasure to drink and absolutely not simple or boring. The finish is of medium length,...

Something familiar but different
28 Sep 2022
To bring in the Jewish New Year of Rosh Hashanah on a sweet/high note tonight, we opened our first Bonjour Drinks bottle - La Cazottes Noix Vertes Liqueur which weighs in at a light 18%abv. While brownish in the glass ( see the picture ), the nose explodes with dates, figs, raisins and plums....

Nice alternative for your sweet tooth
26 Sep 2022
Before tasting La Belle Inconnue, I did not even know that something like this existed and so I was quite curious. The nose is dominated by ripe grapes,quince and also hints of cognac. The palate is also dominated by sweet grapes and is slightly bubbling. The finish is of medium length ending rather...
