Synopsis:
Cognac is the most renowned of French spirits, loved both at home in France and particularly abroad, with a majority of cognac produced for export. The Little Book of Cognac takes the reader on a journey through the intricacies of the world of cognac, from the production process to the lesser-known facets of this subtle and refined liquor. Through this insightful guide the reader will discover that a "Napoleon" cognac inherits its name from Napoleon Ill's love for the spirit, that a "three star" cognac is actually at the bottom of the range, and that a "fine champagne" has nothing to do with bubbly wine. These and many other aspects of cognac's fascinating history are richly illustrated in this essential resource.
