Did you know that one of the oldest known Cocktails, The Sazerac, originally used Cognac?
The use of Cognac ended with the Phylloxera epidemic which devastated French vineyards, which meant that Cognac was very difficult to buy, also the prices increased dramatically in that time.
 
The epidemic, along with the American Civil War, made cognac rather hard to come by, so many bartenders switched the Sazerac recipe to rye whiskey which was still readily available.

We need something easy yet fun to drink combination with Cognac. These drinks take minimum effort and ingredients. Enjoy!
We prefer using Pierre Ferrand 1840 for these Cognac Cocktails.

It tastes great on the rocks, or neat on a cool night, but the Courvoisier Rosé is especially made to mix it in cocktails!
Therefore we publish a nice Cocktail made with Champagne for the ladies in advance to the new year!

Naturally we are drinking less cocktails in winter-time, but we have some great winter Cognac Cocktails for you made with Bache-Gabrielsen Cognac, ofcourse these cocktails could also be made with other Cognacs.
We made the Irish Sipper and enjoyed it very much! Enjoy this winter of your Cognac-Cocktail!

Nowadays, we think of cognac primarily as something to sip by the fireside after a nice dinner.
Yet back in the nineteenth century, when the art of cocktail as we know it first came together, one thing the both the barkeepers who created it and their eager customers would have all agreed on was that nothing made for a better mixed drink than good cognac.
