Courvoisier Très Rare Grande Champagne Cognac Succession JL (70cl, 41%)

This Courvoisier Succession JL Très Rare Grande Champagne Cognac was distilled in the early 1900s and bottled in 1991. Courvoisier acquired it as a single vintage from a single vineyard, in 21 demi-johns, from the family of one of the company's winegrowers in Jarnac. The cognac was passed down through generations under the initials J.L., then drawn from demi-johns resting in Courvoisier's Paradis cellar and bottled without reduction. The edition was limited to 595 hand-numbered bottles, each in a lockable wooden presentation case sealed with an 18-karat gold medallion.
