With a collection of over two hundred cognacs, armagnacs and calvados plus another forty ports available, you are guaranteed a unique experience at Andre's Spirits and Cigar Lounge. We have products that are not widely available and so rare that they're exclusive outside of a private collection.
An example is our vintage cognac tasting; this consists of the Hardy Reserve Vintage 1848, Lhéraud Vintage 1900, and Hardy Reserve Vintage 1914. The flight starts from pre-phylloxera colombard picked at the end of the Mexican-American war, through the turn of the last century, and finishing with a cognac that was created in "the year of the lady"; the beginning of the First World War when only the women were left to tend to the vineyards.
We offer a flight of 'Armagnac vs. Cognac' with two different armagnacs and two different cognacs, half an ounce in each glass, to illustrate the differences between the two spirits. Pouring Baron G. Legrand Vintage 1918 Armagnac, A.E. Dor Reserve No. 8 Cognac, Leopold Gourmel Age de Fleurs Cognac, and Duc de Lussac XO Armagnac, these are serious spirits and three out of four can only be found on a few other drink menus in the country, if at all. This beautiful collection of rarities in a tasting format only costs $125. The shot of 1918 Armagnac by itself is $155.
To provide a frame of reference in enjoying vintage cognacs, we've included historical facts from each vintage year: "Hardy Reserve 1873- Color photographs are first developed". In addition, there is a separate list for the tasting flights and each flight comes with a card offering anecdotal information about the spirit and tasting notes; all to enhance the cordial experience.
