Pierre Ferrand 1840 Original Formula Review
This fine Cognac arrives with a slightly higher than average 45 percent ABV. That extra boozy kick is seamlessly woven into the profile and serves the added advantage of magnifying the spirit's attractive aromas and flavors. Prepare for stone fruits, honey, and white flowers — all of which makes mixing in a Sidecar an absolute no-brainer.
