Been enjoying Hennessy Master Blender's No 1 (VSOP, 43%). Approx. $45 USD for 375 ml.

Remy XO vs Louis XIII cognac

From casino promos I've had "free" dining $ and tried the Louis XIII twice. IMHO XO is much better than VSOP, BUT I did not perceive that the Louis was (much) superior to XO, add in the price difference...

Godet VSOP. Nice oak and floral notes on the nose. Good tannic structure. A little fruit and the oak reappears on the palate. Very smooth and meant for sipping and enjoying life. Family owned business for 15 generations.

feels cognac had a rich aroma with notes of fruit and oak, and the taste was well-balanced with hints of vanilla and spice, loved it!

I've recently enjoyed ABK6's XO and VSOPs at home.

Admittedly, my only other experiences with Cognac have been in the air.
Courvosier VSOP wasn't all that great, but AY has served Otard XO which I liked, so I bought the ABK6's for home since I couldn't find the Otard nearby.

I love the Ambre, but also like to have the double cask on hand as well.
