Deze Cognac is wat zoeter en hoger in alcoholpercentage (45%) dan de gemiddelde Cognac, waardoor deze Cognac uitermate geschikt is in authentieke Cocktails zoals de Sidecar.

Net als alle andere Pierre Ferrand’s is ook deze Cognac een 100% Grande Champagne Cognac, de eerste Cru in de Cognac-streek.

Hoewel deze Cognac behoorlijk zoetig van smaak is, een smaak die ik meestal niet zeer bij Cognac waardeer, is deze Cognac door zijn hogere alcohol percentage en specerijen aroma’s een waar genot om puur te drinken. In combinatie met cocktails heb ik nog niet kunnen proeven, al kan ik me niet voorstellen dat dat zal tegenvallen.

De prijs van deze innovatieve (en heerlijke!) cognac is nog niet bekend, evenals de gemiddelde leeftijd.

The final blend is closely modeled on an impossibly rare and impossibly well-preserved bottle of Pinet-Castillon cognac from the year 1840, a generation and more before the phylloxera louse devastated the vineyards of cognac. Like that venerable cognac, it is fresh and floral, yet with enough darker, tannic notes to keep it from disappearing when mixed into a Cocktail, Punch or Julep. The fact that it is, at 45% alcohol, more concentrated than a standard VS cognac (almost always bottled at 40%) makes it particularly well adapted to the spirit-forward style of cocktail and mixed drink that was in favor before Prohibition.

De proefnotities van de Pierre Ferrand 1840 Original Formula zijn:

De kleur: geel/groen-goud.
De geur: fruitig, iets spicy, beetje zoetig. Het hogere alcoholpercentage merk je niet.
De smaak: vanille, kaneel (redelijk spicy), honing, zoetig, lichte hout invloeden.
De na-smaak: zoetig, erg lang en lekker.
De leeftijd: over een leeftijd wordt nergens gerept, smaaktechnisch lijkt deze Cognac iets jonger dan de Pierre Ferrand Ambre.
De herkomst: 100% Grande Champagne Cognac.
De prijs: onbekend tot dusver.
De prijs/kwaliteit verhouding: een 8+. Wat een geweldig idee, en het smaak puur ook nog eens zeer bijzonder.

Voor de liefhebbers nog een recept voor een lekkere Cocktail:

Original Cognac Cocktail
(Adapted from Jerry Thomas, Bar-Tenders’ Guide, 1862)
In a mixing glass, stir ½ teaspoon/3 ml of superfine or caster sugar with 1 teaspoon/5 ml water until sugar has dissolved.
Add:

• 2 oz/60 ml 1840 Original Formula,
• 1 teaspoon/5 ml orange liqueur, such as Mathilde orange
• 2-3 dashes aromatic bitters, such as Fee’s Whiskey barrel Bitters or The Bitter Truth, Aromatic Bitters, or Angostura bitters.

Fill glass with cracked ice, stir well and strain into chilled cocktail glass.

Twist lemon peel over the top. For an Improved Cognac Cocktail, substitute maraschino liqueur for the orange liqueur and add a dash (or 3 or 4 drops) of absinthe.

In dit artikel leest u de ingrediënten en ziet u een video hoe deze cocktail te maken is.

Ik raad aan om niet te veel citroensap te gebruiken, aangezien de drank anders te zuur kan worden. De drank kan het beste in een Champagne Flûte geserveerd worden.

Ingrediënten voor 1 glas French 75:

75 ml Champagne
25 ml citroensap
50 ml Cognac
10 stuks ijsblokjes, gehakt
10 ml suikersiroop of een theelepel suiker

Bereiding:
1. Shake de Cognac, het Citroensap, de suikersiroop en het ijs.
2. Schenk door de strainer in een koud longdrink-glas.
3. Vul aan met Champagne,
4. Werk af met een schijfje citroen, een krulletje citroenschil of een kers.

 
Bij het onlangs gerenoveerde Renaissance Amsterdam Hotel is vanaf nu de LOUIS XIII cocktail verkrijgbaar. Deze duurste cocktail van Nederland is gecreëerd door Niels van Horssen, headbartender van de nieuwe loungebar 2B in het Amsterdamse Renaissance Hotel.
Als basis voor de LOUIS XIII cocktail heeft Van Horssen het recept van de ‘Brandy Crusta’ genomen, een cocktail uit 1850 van Joseph Santini, wie aan de basis stond van het gebruik van citroensap in cocktails.

De LOUIS XIII cocktail bestaat uit 60 ml Rémy Martin LOUIS XIII, 10 ml Grand Marnier Cent Cinquantenaire (45 jaar oude sinaasappel cognac), 5 ml Luxardo Maraschino (kersenpitlikeur), Arabische gomsiroop, vers citroensap en Angostura Bitters (Trinidad). De cocktail wordt geserveerd in een kristallen LOUIS XIII-glas dat is gedecoreerd met Muscovado-suiker gemengd met 24 karaats goud.

Omdat deze cocktail het verdiend om in alle rust te worden gedronken, biedt het Renaissance Amsterdam Hotel bij aanschaf van de LOUIS XIII cocktail voor slechts honderd euro meer een overnachting aan in dit prestigieuze hotel.

LOUIS XIII is onbetwist de ‘nec plus ultra’ van alle cognac. Deze cognac die sinds 1874 wordt gemaakt door het cognachuis Rémy Martin is een uiterst waardevolle cognac.

LOUIS XIII is een Grande Champagne verrijkt met 40 tot 100 jaar oude eaux-de-vie in een legendarische kristallen karaf in Venetiaanse stijl die versierd is met Franse lelies. Zeldzame smaken en aroma’s waaronder iris, narcis, gekonfijt fruit, passievrucht, mirre en honing maken LOUIS XIII cognac van Rémy Martin tot een onvergetelijke ervaring en verleent deze cognac zijn uiterst uitbundige smaak van perfectie, waarvan de aroma’s langer dan een uur in het gehemelte gegrift blijven staan.

Pure Pulp is een cognac cocktail die bedacht was door Hennessy bij de lancering van hun nieuwe cognac: Pure-White. Helaas voor hun was die cognac niet zo’n succes en is bij mijn weten ook niet meer leverbaar.

Gelukkig is Pure Pulp ook prima te maken met andere cognac’s daarom bij deze de uitleg hoe een Pure Pulp cocktail te maken is.

Voor een Pure Pulp heb je de volgende ingrediënten nodig:

• 4 cl zachte cognac (VSOP)
• 3 witte druiven
• 1 schijfje limoen (met schil)
• 2 theelepels riet suiker
• IJsklontjes
• Mooi glad glas (zonder voet)

• De cognac in het glas doen en voorzichtig de suiker erdoor heen roeren
• Zachtjes de ijsklontjes in de drank leggen
• Druiven en de limoen toevoegen
• Gelijk serveren

Shake 3 delen cognac met 2 delen triple sec, zoals Cointreau of Grand Marnier en 1 deel citroensap met ruim ijs in een cocktailshaker. Suiker kun je doormiddel van suikersiroop toevoegen aan de drank of het glas afwerken met een randje suiker. Schenk via een zeef in een cocktailglas.

Genieten maar! Hieronder een video hoe de cocktail precies te maken is.
