Dougy Posted July 11, 2020 Report Share Posted July 11, 2020 Remy Martin Champagne V.S.O.P Top of your limit of £50. its one of my favorites. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheesefiend Posted July 23, 2020 Report Share Posted July 23, 2020 Hine rare VSOP is very good, and something a little bit out of the ordinary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lloyd90 Posted July 23, 2020 Report Share Posted July 23, 2020 For a cheap easy drinking Brandy I think Three Barrels is pretty nice. I might splash out and get myself one of the above however and see if I notice any difference. I am a heathen however and like to drink either rum of brandy with a Coke Zero and a bit of ice.

Robden Posted July 24, 2020 Report Share Posted July 24, 2020 Remy, black bottle. I always get one for myself at Christmas. Doesn't last long though........reckon the bottle leaks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amateur Posted July 24, 2020 Report Share Posted July 24, 2020 (edited) Go for an armagnac - different enough to be special without big brand names and arguably a finer drink https://www.winesdirect.com/products/marquis-de-montesquiou-fine-armagnac.aspx Edited July 24, 2020 by amateur Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I warm the glass with hot water beforehand to open up the flavours, as Armagnac can seem a bit more ‘rustic’ taste-wise to me. I have a bottle of Janneau 5y.o. at the mo, but it’s not as nice as this one ☝️ Somerset cider brandy or a nice calvados are my faves.

enfieldspares Posted July 24, 2020 Report Share Posted July 24, 2020 (edited) Camus VSOP Elegance at about £37 a bottle. Or the standard issue Hine. Which was Churchill's stock brandy. You can cut out the middleman and pour Remy Martin straight down the lavatory. Edited July 24, 2020 by enfieldspares Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
