Argentine 'cognac' is related to paint thinner...... it pains me to say it but its the truth.

You've had too easy an upbringing laddie. I OTOH am fortunate that I don't have to be so picky on the brand of cognac I drink. Less fussy= Lower outlay of cash. ^
Folks - try the San Juan Reserva* only 28 pesos a bottle. :D

* Not favoured by wine shop owners as the profit margin isn't very good.

Guilty as charged on the non favouring part of the above.... :D

However, bad profit margin or not..... the SJ Reserva is still paint thinner..... :p :D

Um, I don't think you're going to see a bottle with "cognac" and "Industria Argentina" on the label in the US anytime soon. Quelle horreur! It would be cheaper to have it manufactured in New Jersey :D
