About Braastad Cognac
In the heart of Grande Champagne in the village of Jarnac lies the impressive Chateau de Triac. The chateau is the home of Cognac Tiffon, to which the cognac brand Braastad belongs. Rubbing shoulders with other famous cognac houses such as Bisquit or Courvoisier, the brand Braastad was created when a Norwegian named Sverre Braastad married into the Tiffon family. Known for their devotion to the traditional cognac producing methods, today the whole process is still carried out at the family premises, and Cognac Braastad’s products are renowned worldwide.

Other Braastad Cognac bottles
Powerful, a good sense of rancio - and a very long after taste.
Review Braasted Organic VSOP: Copper toned eye, flowers on the nose. A balanced VSOP, rather round, still a bit fruity, and sweet aromas.
Fruity notes, combined with vanilla and nuts. Can be mixed, for longdrinks.
Other VSOP Cognac bottles
This VSOP presents a dark amber colour. On the nose some darker, fruity notes. The finish is strong, and lasts for 5 minutes.
No tasting notes from the producer.

Tasting review by Landy Cognac:
Fiery amber color. A mellow cognac, long and pleasantly lingering on the palate. Smooth vanilla and ripe fruit flavors rounded by oakier notes.
