WHEN AND HOW TO DRINK COGNAC: FIRST LET'S REVIEW THE 'WHAT NOT TO DO LIST'.

Cognac is not seasonal as many people think: in other words, not just for the Winter months, and not just a sipping spirit. Cognac is much more versatile that many people think.
But first, one should take his time and savour it bit by bit, little by little. Cognac is about the moment!
First here is what not to do with cognac.
