Finding New Hermitage Cognacs

As most of our customers are aware, Hermitage Cognacs come with age statements and it can be difficult sometimes to find enough to supply the market needs. Clearly younger cognacs are easier to find than older ones, but the need for quality means that we have to reject many vintages where we feel that they will neither fit into our range or are not of a quality suitable for the Hermitage name. There is a big demand for vintages - far more than generically labelled blends - since customers are fast becoming disillusioned with the highly modified big brands.

At Brandyclassics we work hard to find cognacs that we know our customers want and we have recently added a number of new cognacs to our range. Amongst the new finds are a beautifully light and clean 1988 Grande Champagne and a superb 1900 at 47.5% from Grande Champagne. These cognacs are masterpieces and deserve to be enjoyed.

The predominant house style of Chez Richon shows through in this cognac although it is rather sweeter and spicier than others from this house

Finding 1900 is always difficult and becoming increasingly more so. We were delighted to have been offered this which is really nice and comes from the area around Boutevillein the East of Grande Champagne.
