Trifecta

Hennessy Paradis.

Enjoy! I got myself a bottle of the Paradis after the Louis. The Paradis a great pour!

[u/Bbqpilotph → u/Biggs17]

Dependent on personal tastes in my opinion I like the Paradis reg and the Richard better than the Louis. The Louis is more hype coz of social media.

Louis, like most famous things is average.  I mean it's still very good but not so amazing as to deserve its price.  The best is Hennessy Ellipse, Hardy Perfection Air, or Hardy Le Automne.

I haven’t tasted any of the cognac you’ve mentioned. I will try to get to taste those before my lifetime I guess. Thank you for letting me know.

Paradis Imperial is exceptional.  The regular Paradis is their best value of enjoyment per dollar. 

[u/Bbqpilotph → u/ThePlatinumPaul]

Agreed

[u/Biggs17 → u/ThePlatinumPaul]

Yes great pour for the price. But we all know they they don’t cost this much to produce. Same goes with wine, scotch and whiskey, they can go into the thousands and honestly it just becomes trivial at that point. It just becomes a luxury…

That's everything really that's not something incredibly cheap and designed to be sold in bulk.  I'm not going to criticize a company for charging a lot for an item that's been, at least to an extent, maturing for over 100 years.

Do you think a casual cognac fan would be able to appreciate the difference between this and Hennessy XO?

[u/bluelabelbe → u/denys5555]

Yes!!! You can definitely tell the difference

[u/denys5555 → u/bluelabelbe]

Thanks! I’m trying to talk myself into taking the plunge

[u/Bbqpilotph → u/denys5555]

With Hennessy Yes.

[u/denys5555 → u/Bbqpilotph]

You’re tempting me! 😊

You missing the king of cognac

What's that?
