Pour it down the sink, it's crap! Go and buy some Courvoisier! 😉

Remy or Courvs..... as long as it's VSOP. Hen is VSOC...... and we know what the C is for. I like my organ functions as they are! 😲 🙂

Let's be honest: You would drink even gasoline if necessary/urgent/given/offered/recommended.

So, don't worry about the formalities and just flush that thing down, mate!

Hennesy is a great brand of Cognac (over 240 years old), and offers the whole range from the (very good) standard cognac to the outstanding XO and special distilles.

Drink it pure at room temperature in a balloon glass. A fancy way is to slightly warm the glass before pouring in the cognac, that helps release the aromas.

A standard cognac can be used in cocktails (many recepies available), and even served on the rocks, but don't do that if it is a more luxurious one, that would be a waste.

Lol, happy new year for you as well! 🙂

Oh well, I am not an elegant or knowledgeable drinker myself, but I've heard that straight is how "it should be", although youngsters mix it with coca-cola and some ice cubes.

Why not trying both?

Despite the Remy and Courvoisier fans, Hennessy often has more weight and balance than its natural competitors,
a touch more caramel (they all have some) for sweetness in the aftertaste... 😵

Fill the balloon glass with very hot tap water and let it stand for five minutes. Empty and wipe dry. Pour in the cognac... 😀 Sniff & sip!!!

trade it in for a bottle of Cask NO. 16 Crown Royal.....you'll get more enjoyment and it's easier on the taste buds
