Beautiful spirit
The nose has stewed, spiced apples, mangoes and violets. A touch of rhubarb. Absolutely amazing. The palate brings more stewed fruit, toffee apples, vanilla and a little leather before the spices begin to gently unfold. Plenty of interest on the finish with sandalwood, nutmeg, leather, chocolate...
A bottle of cognac that is perfect for family gatherings
At a family gathering, after dinner, I drank this bottle of cognac. The aroma of flowers and fruits wrapped around the whole house, and the fragrance of wood and cocoa surrounded the glass, which was a good prelude. After drinking a sip of cognac, the aromas of candied fruit, cocoa coffee, and...
Awesome cognac!
This a awesome cognac incredible rich.. flavor bomb! Delivers stewed fruits, peaches, plums, raisins, sultanas, orange rind, rich vanilla cream, chocolate, roasted hazelnuts and cashews, cacao, dark oak, sweet grapes, toffee, cedar and a few spices!
Solid XO
Bertrand is a producer that doesn't get the attention they deserve. We visited them in 2017 and discovered their range. The traditional range is a bit commercial, and easy to like. And then they also have a range of special products more for the enthusiasts. This XO has an age around 35 years, and...
Outstanding Cognac
Bertrand XO is a blend of Petite Champagne aged 35 and 40 years. Just a lovely nose, with dried fruits, and a little vanilla and wood spice. I want to crawl into the glass!!! The palate is alive with dried and candied fruits, some kind of nut, and a hint of chocolate? The finish is extremely long,...
Very smooth and soft on the palette.
First time we have tried this particular cognac. We found it very pleasant and not strong or any overpowering vapour. Strong toffee and vanilla flavours throughout and has a slight bite towards the end. There is no distinct rancio. Overall, it is one very nice cognac and I would not hesitate to...
Unknown brand, great Blend!
I had never heard of Bertrand cognac. Then I tasted their XO, really rich and balanced. The aromas are fantastic! The finish could be a little less punchy though. The price could be slightly lower (10% or so), on the other hand you support the Bertrand family.. so that's totally fair to pay
Bertrand XO
This cognac is complex and definitely shows it’s age. It’s very well rounded with vanilla and fruit on the nose. It is very distinct on the palate with nuttiness, caramel, and fruit such as orange bitters. Be sure to let this aerate!!! I tasted and smelled this before and after letting it sit...
