“Since my first bottle of Hine Rare,I have tried Courvoisier, Frapin, Hennessy, Maxime Trijol,amongst others. This VSOP is without doubt, the most user friendly cognac I have drank.No hit of alcohol on the first sip,plenty of flavour,enougth oil to hang in your throat momentarily, and NO watery finish.Not over priced.At last I have found my perfect VSOP.Plenty if more expensive VSOPs to choose,but who wants to pay for after burners.”

Description

Hine Rare Cognac is crafted using a blend of eaux-de-vie from the Grande and Petite Champagne regions. Around 20 different eaux-de-vie make their way into this expression, resulting in a flavour profile that boasts waves of floral breeze, fresh fruit, and warming woody spices. A stunning Cognac that was first blended by the eponymous Thomas Hine many moons ago...

Absolutely superb

This is by far my favourite cognac. It initially has a toffee apple taste (whch is not unpleasant if you like toffee apples) then that goes and you can relish the taste of a heavenly cognac. I consider myself to be a half full person so when the bottle has diminished to just half full I will buy another one to continue my optimism. My mantra must be half full then another full so I can continue my optimism with the joy of Hine Rare.

Excellent cognac

This is by far my favourite cognac. As I'm pouring it into a glass the aroma of it almost makes me salivate, sorry, perhaps too much information but it smells of apricots and vanilla, two of my favourite tastes. I highly recommend it if you want an excellent cognac without your mouth feeling numb with an afterburn at the end of the glass. Sip it and enjoy. I certainly do.

Slightly oily flavour but drinkable

I'm not an expert, but this is a pretty decent cognac. It's a quarter of the price of my usual favourite and not at all raw like many of its peers. I find it slightly oily tasting, but still good value for the money.

Perfectly lovely

Don't bother with a sample,just buy the bottle

Been drinking this cognac for years, and always have a full bottle in my stock. Full of zest and no need to mix. Just a pleasure to sip.
