"I need to buy a bottle of brandy as a thank you for a business associate. It needs to cost £100 - £200 and i want him to know it cost that (i.e. not something you pick up in tesco). I know he normally likes to drink Courvoisier, so something similar but premium would be good. Any recommendations? " The top grade of Brandy Is Napolion. The one under is XO. Then you come down to VSOP and the lowestis Cognac Most brands do the whole range but if he likes Courvoisier then go for Courvoisier Napoleon He will know it costs a lot. Hope that helps. | |||

The opportunity cost of its price is considered proportional to the thanks being given, according to social convention. | |||

"A Remy xo is a good cognac" According to the post above, doesn't the XO mean it's not their top quality? Isn't XO second best | |||

It's why you should never buy someone an expensive gift and cheap gift at the same time. | |||

"I used to sell the stuff and would always go for Armagnac over Cognac in terms of quality and exclusivity. Strange as it might sound take a look at the whisky exchange for bottles up to £2500...." Any particular bottles though? | |||

Any particular bottles though? " Janneau is at the better end but all Amagnacs are small production and have their own distinct characters .....you will be able to pick up a decent 30 year old example in your budget. | |||
