love Cognac, try the Henessey XOXO or Remy Martin XOXO, each bottle will hit you for like 150 clams but its good stuff. While I was in Japan, I celebrated over a bottle of Hennesey XOXO 10 yrs old, cost of the bottle itself was 700 bucks. Very good stuff. Love the top shelf, enjoy.

My parents don't drink but they have several bottles of cognac left over from their wedding banquet....should be at least 40 years old by now. Unopened.

Unfortunately booze doesn't continue aging in the bottle, only wine does...

By far the best cognac that I have ever tried was Remy Martin Louis XIII. Here is a link to a review

At a fine dining restaurant I used to work at it was sold for $140 a shot!

Went to a wedding reception last night. They had a bottle Rene Martin VSOP on our table. It was good, but I'm a light-weight.
