Little Brown Dog Brandy Petit Chien Brun Single Cask Cognac 1993 France 70 cl 50.1%
This French cognac is truly something special. Distilled on November 30, 1993, it was matured in France before being moved to Scotland for the final part of its journey. It was bottled there on October 26, 2024. Due to the regulations surrounding the use of the term "Cognac," the label reads "French Brandy," as the bottling took place outside of France. However, don’t be misled by the name – the liquid inside is the same exquisite spirit that would have been called Cognac if bottled in France. Its relocation from France to Scotland has in no way affected its quality or character.
Only 232 bottles have been drawn from this single cask, bottled at its natural strength. This makes it an even more exclusive and sought-after release among connoisseurs.
The color of this brandy is exactly like a classic Grande Champagne Cognac – somewhat unusual, yet undeniably a visual delight.
On the nose, this brandy reveals notes of Sirop de Liège (a sweet syrup made from apples and pears), lichen, and a subtle hint of antique shop aromas that evoke a sense of nostalgia.
The palate is rich and complex, with flavors of caramelized pineapple, apricot tart, and buttery pastry that practically melts on the tongue. It’s an experience that evolves with every sip.
The finish is long and warm, with a sweetness reminiscent of Highland toffee, complemented by a touch of festive spices such as cinnamon and nutmeg. This combination makes this French brandy a perfect dram for the winter months or an elegant conclusion to a fine meal.
