Rare Hare Lapine 60 Year Old Cognac
Rare Hare is a curator of the most exceptional spirits from across the globe, and with this cognac, it really did find a treasure. Rare Hare Lapine's 60-year-old cognac was sourced from France, from the Herbelot family of winegrowers that has been growing grapes for cognac houses in the nearby region. But for one harvest of particularly plump and sweet Petite Champagne grapes in the late summer of 1961, they made an exception. They didn’t sell it to any of the famous and renowned cognac houses, instead, they distilled it themselves and barreled it for 60 full years. They made the right choice: 1961 is now widely regarded as one of the most exceptional Champagne vintages of the 20th century, and their harvest has become Lapine 60-year-old cognac, one of the finest examples of cognac and the ultimate taste of luxury. One can hardly surpass the price when talking about such luxury, but as it is customary with such treasures, the price delivers.

Tasting Notes
On the nose, this cognac is fresh with notes of stone fruits, candied strawberries, and spring foliage. Citrus and lychee are the first notes on the palate, followed closely by buttered toast and orange zest. The finish is long and lingering with hues of vanilla coffee and brandied ice cream.
