Jean-Luc Pasquet L’Organic 07 Review
It feels like one thing stopping small-house Cognac from becoming more mainstream is that no mom ‘n’ pop producers have yet become real household names. Unlike tequila — which also suffers from conglomerate-owned, additive-laden brands in flashy bottles — there’s no Fortaleza (or Ocho or even LALO) yet in the world of Cognac. But Pasquet could fill that role. The brand’s seven year Cognac is surprisingly dry, spicier, and woodier than any big house Cognacs you’re used to. The palate is packed with orchard fruit and more baking spice. Pasquet always offers approachable, delicious, complex Cognac at a price that can’t be beat, whether you want to drink it neat or shake it up in cocktails. If you see Pasquet, any Pasquet…buy it.
