Story:

We went to Frapin house in France. Direct purchase from manufacturer. They only had few millesimes available to try out. Their regular cognacs were nothing special to the taste, not old enough, and out of the 2 millesimes available for tasting, this special blend of 3 millesimes blended together was the best. We bought 1 bottle only, N.1644; I will be looking for the certificate for this bottles of this blend (to be confirmed). With the move from France back to here, still in boxes.
