- Description
- Pinet Castillon's 1878 Cognac, bottled in the 1940s, is a rare artefact from a historically important Cognac house now largely forgotten. The spirit has had more than a century to develop, revealing deep amber colour and concentrated fruit, wood spice, and oak complexity. A collector's item best appreciated as a meditation on Cognac's evolution rather than as everyday drinking.
