Tasting review
On the eye: golden, copper hints.
On the nose: rather full, some dark fruits
On the palate: spicy in the mouth and woody aromas. Smooth at the finish.
Description
The Meukow VS 90 Cognac is a wonderful over-proof cognac (45%) that makes it ideal for many different situations. Enjoy as a base for your favorite cocktail, or simply enjoy it neat - a great way to enjoy this complex yet harmonious blend that's characterized by its power and aromatic persitance.
Although it's technically classifed as a VS quality, the blend is aged for well over the amount of time you'd generally expect for a cognac of this quality. And the presentation is stunning - in a jet black bottle with the classic pouncing panther emblem of Meukow.

About Meukow Cognac
As the name suggests, the founders of Meukow cognac originated from Russia. In 1862 two brothers were sent over to France to supply the Tsar with cognac and decided to start their own cognac distillery. Today, Meukow, with the famous puma logo, ranks among the most well-known cognac brands in the world. Its qualities are strength, elegance, sensuality and exotism, the character traits of the puma. The distillery is housed in Matha in Charente Maritime.
