Favourite Brandy?

[Vulcan]

I’m not normally a Brandy drinker but I got a taste for it on my last cruise. So far I’m liking Hennessy and Martell. I had a Courvoisier in the Indian the other night which wasn’t bad. What’s your favourite?

I like Castarede Armagnac - smooth but not cheap.

Try a Diplomatico rum and go back to being not normally a brandy drinker

I had a couple of doubles in Harrod's front window at a Martell tasting. A thousand quid's worth at Harrod's bar prices 14 years ago.

Seriously, if I were to pay a lot of money I'd buy Armagnac rather than Cognac, although the Spanish Carlos1 is rather pleasant.

Hennessy XO is a little sweet but delicious. I'd love to try Churchills favourite - Hine - but can't find it anywhere.

Hine didn't market a 3* as Hine Signature was thought in the trade to be better than 3*.
