A. E. Dor Napoleon Cognac (70cl / 40%) A denomination that has fallen out of fashion in recent times in favour of the XO designation, Napoleon style Cognacs must be aged for a minimum of eight years. A. E. Dor Napoleon is in fact aged for 18 years and is a blend of three different growths combining the maturity of Petit Champagne, the vigour and vivacity of Borderies, and the finesse and length of Grand Champagne. Tasting Notes Aroma: Brown sugar and Danish pastries - with cr?me anglaise and raisins - lead the nose. Balancing that is a gentle sourness - toffee-coated sharp green apples - and behind it all lies a plump sultana sweetness. Taste: Intensely sweet at first, with Demerara caramel and golden syrup. The sweetness is swiftly tempered by gently sappy oak, burnt raisins and soft spice - nutmeg and allspice. Finish: Sweet and sour fruit, with long and lingering leathery undertones. Comment: Balanced fruit sweetness and cask-derived dryness, neither hiding the quality of A. E. Dor?s excellent spirit.
