Comments:

Apparently specially blended to accompany a cigar. I don't smoke (anymore) so I can't test this. However, the cognac is soft and round, fruity on the nose, but with a leathery tobacco note. The flavour profile extends to the tongue as well. It's not sweet, but it smells sweet. Very pleasant indeed.

Verdict:

I Iike this.
