$95 plus tax and service charge
Join our TCC bar stars to examine the world of French Brandy and Cognac (yes, there is a difference!), and immerse yourself in one of the world’s oldest spirits. Distilled from wine made from white grapes and cask-aged to mellow, there is exciting stylistic diversity across the country, especially within the Cognac appellation. This interactive session will teach you the history, production methods, how to decode the terms from VS to XO, how to taste, serve and even cook with these grape-based spirits. You’ll also shake up a classic cocktail and indulge in pairing delights from the TCC culinary team. Best of all, these celebrated spirits are all from the house of Remy-Martin!
