Well, I guess I like Cognac
I've had a bottle of Hennessy in the cupboard for several months and I decided to crack it open tonight.
Wow, this is really good. Smooth.......amazingly so.

I thought Henn was for "soul Brotha's"? Looks like your going to have to get yourself a grill and pull your pants down a little bit.

I'll drink the bottle of Hennessy ya got on yo shelf,
So just let me introduce myself. My name is Humpty. Pronounced with an Umpty. And oh ladies, Oh how I love to funk thee. And all the rappers in the top ten, Please allow me to bump thee. You gotta listen to the Humpty Dance when you drink Hennessy. It's a rule.

I'm a big fan of Pierre Ferrand. Their Selection des Anges is as good or better than the big brands' XOs for a somewhat more reasonable price. And even their base level--Ambre--is drinkable, unlike the big brands' VS swill.

Don't know what V.S., X.O, PDQ, or whatever means. I do know malt liquor is awful.
A song I once heard during my subscription to punk music three decades ago, went: Whskey makes you frisky; gin makes you sin; brandy makes you randy; and rum it makes you...it makes you...rum it makes you COME!

I have had brandys that I liked better than XO. I used to own a bar and I have a lot of boose left over from those days(the xo included). I wouldn't buy a bottle of hooch that expensive.

I'm not here.

Hennesey is very good. Anyone try Armagnac? The diff is Hen Rock is twice distilled, Armagnac is once distilled. Also the regions are different.
I like red wine though. I'm drinking an 1961 Chateau Montrose right now. Not too shabby.

It's not about the up to, what matters is the at least.
Finally a line I can use when I fire people where they'll have no comeback!

not Cognac, but well worth a try if you haven't : Calvados
made from apple cider in the Normandie great stuff i know it because my grandmother was born in Touchet, and our family kept ties with the farm there... they drink it on the side of a desert coffee, or put it on a sugar, to suck on , and call it "pour le mal au coeur" , translated "for the heart ache" the best stuff came out of the old barrels in a little worn shed...
