- Description
- A 19th-century cognac distilled around 1893 and bottled by British wine merchant Averys of Bristol in the 1960s—a relic of a more established era of cognac commerce. Decades of bottle age have mellowed and concentrated the spirit into a smooth, deeply complex whole marked by oxidative notes, dried fruit, and wood spice. As a very old cognac of uncertain provenance and potential condition, it represents historical interest as much as drinking experience. A collector's piece best appreciated for its provenance and rarity.
