BRANDY COGNAC

BACHE GABRIELSEN FRANCE, COGNAC The super-premium cognacs of Bache Gabrielsen have never been available Stateside – until now. For the first time in its storied 111- year history, this family-owned cognac house is sharing their spirits with us. To mark the occasion, Bache Gabrielsen has debuted the first of its kind, innovative cognac aged in authentic new American Tennessee Oak barrels. The American Oak is a VS—three years in Limousin oak—and finished in new Tennessee oak barrels for another six months giving it distinctive character. Aromas of ripe apricot, pear, vanilla and lingering flavors of coconut, caramel and chocolate. Perfect cognac for the bourbon drinker! 80PF 92pts Tasting Panel Bache Gabrielsen Tre Kors Fine Cognac VS BGAKVSNVC / 750ml / $27.00 Tre Kors is blended from 25% Grande Champagne / Petite Champagne and 75% Fins Bois cognac. Matured in casks for a minimum of four years, creating a deep amber color while maintaining a bouquet marked by fruit and something of the character of young Grande Champagne Cognac. 80PF 91pts Tasting Panel Bache Gabrielsen XO Cognac Decanter BGAXO6NVC / 750ml / $92.00 Bache Gabrielsen American Oak BGAAOKNVC / 750ml / $39.00
