Tasting note

Triomphe is an exceptional cognac created in 1888 by Edouard Hine in celebration of the man's victory over the phylloxera epidemic, which destroyed most of the vineyards at the time. Made from a blend of 50 rare, old cognacs (again exclusively from Grande Champagne) that have been aged for an average of 45-55 years. Sweeter on the nose with caramel notes and more oak, it is the most expressive of the Hine's floral Cognacs. Incredibly smooth and lingering on the palate. (May 25, 2012)
