Pierre Ferrand Cognac Renegade Barrel #3
Pierre Ferrand Cognac Renegade Barrel #3 is like a suave French rebel in a smoky leather jacket—classically smooth with a bold twist, breaking all the rules and tasting all the better for it. 48.2% ABV (96.4 Proof), 750 ml, distilled in 2011, double maturation in oak and Jamaican Rum Barrels. "Ferrand’s latest edition Renegade n°3 is an eau-de-vie de vin made from Cognac that has undergone a second maturation in Rum barrels that have contained Plantation Rum from the storied Long Pond Distillery in Jamaica. This delicious creation is a tribute to old master blenders who would go to the harbor in Bordeaux to collect rum barrels as they arrived from the Caribbean.On the palate, Renegade n°3 reveals intense and fruity notes of orange, guava, and cape gooseberry, accompanied by pastry notes of almond and vanilla with a floral touch of honeysuckle. The finish is long and suave with lemongrass, pepper, and licorice, a touch of coffee, and a minty feel."
