COGNAC PROPERTY & HOTELS
Cognac
All the great cognac houses do tours - a good one is chez Cognac Otard situated in the 15th - 16th century chateau where Francois I was born. The distillery was established in 1795 by a Scot named Otard who ruthessly demolished an old chapel in the process. Luckily most of the Renaissance architecture was saved and can be seen during the tour, which includes cognac tasting.
The basic material for cognac is local white wine, low in alcohol, which is then distilled. The resulting pale spirit is aged in oak barrels for between four and forty years before being bottled. The skill lies in the belnding - therefore the only guide to quality is the name and duration of ageing.
