While my father introducing me to cognac may have started the embers smoldering
Ferrand S.D.A. is what turned those embers into a roaring fire.
My wife and I were out to dinner in Boston when I noticed
they had cognac on the menu. they ranged in price from fairly reasonable to
downright obscene. I landed in the middle with Selection Des Anges. There was another Ferrand but it was very pricey(Legendaire....$140.00 a pop ..yikes). Alcohol tends to be one of the most marked up items in most restaurants.
I enjoyed the S.D.A. enough that I had to google it as soon as I got home.
I found it here on Cognac Expert and ordered a bottle.
It was amazing, There was no burn, the aroma of chocolate and vanilla were
pervasive at first then ginger. there was a constant dried fruit flavor, oak was obvious
as well as some flavors I still cant quite identify.
It was, simply put, awesome! A great re-introduction into cognac .
I'll be looking for more.
