Inspired by cognacs used during the golden age of cocktail-making in the 19th century, Ferrand Master Blender Alexandre Gabriel partnered with friend and renowned cocktail historian David Wondrich to revive such a spirit. 1840 Original Formula is young and lively, yet richer in flavor and higher in proof than modern VS cognacs, offering ripe, juicy grape notes with spice and honey accents. Perfect for mixing excellently into cocktails.
