French local VSOP brands?
I am going to France in December, can you recommend a good local brand of cognac that is not well known and is worth buying a bottle of? I am interested in the VSOP, prices in the range of €45 / $45.

Looking for Cognacs similar in taste and price point to Meukow VOSP
Purchased Meukow VOSP duty free in the airport. Absolutely loved the taste. Cannot easily get it shipped or purchase locally in the US.
Looking for alternatives.

Looking for good 50-100 usd bottle
The catch is to recommend me a bottle that's always in stock. In the tequila world it's always hard to find mid level great tequila's in stock. It's either a good value 40 dollar always in stock or a 200+ USD always in stock, with little in between available with consistency. I'm a newb besides the big brands in vsop and xo flavors.

Worth spending more on xo?
I got my courvoisier vsop and it's great it's versatile I sip it mix it etc. I come into quite a bit of coinage so I am thinking are the big expensive bottles actually worth it to someone new to the spirit such as me. Bottles I am tempted to buy,martel cordon blue,camus xo borderies,hennessy xo,frapin xo.
As a beginner buy??? or waste of money Suggestions are needed.

Gift HELP!
My family do an annual Secret Santa and I got my uncle, who only put a nice bottle of cognac on his wish list. I went for the François Peyrot X.O. I still have 35 euros to spend (we have a budget), what does everyone suggest I add to his gift?
TIA!

Navarre Vs Peyrot, please help
Hello, I'm looking to buy a bottle to keep on the shelf for years, I drink 1 or 2 glasses per year, typically a wine or whisky drinker.
I've tried most of the big names, I've tried some ferrand, etc, etc and I've narrowed down my choice to:
Navarre Souvenir Impérial Hors d'Age,
Or
Peyrot Lot 60,
the former has a stellar reputation, it's probably a little more refined...it's blended, presumably filtered, etc, the Peyrot is older, unblended, and straight to bottle which appeals.
Any advice.

A Complete Noob Here!
I remember haveing a great Brandy or Conac with a cigar years ago. I want to experience this again with my son. I thought a Hennessy would be a safe bet. Should I try the VSOP or VS. I remember VSOP was smoother but again, I'm not very educated and my taste buds are not sophisticated yet. What recommendations do you all have? Something for sipping straight. Thanks!

Passing The Mantle
I have personally retired from spirits and am interested in passing the mantle of this community to someone who loves cognac, isn't looking to promote themselves, and commits to bringing care and compassion to the community and the people who post to it. If this is you, please reach out.

My dad is looking for a bottle of Courvoisier Napoleon?
I'm a scotch drinker and know almost nothing about Cognac and my Dad doesn't drink much but fondly remembers a bottle of Courvoisier Napoleon and expressed interest in having a bottle added to his liquor cabinet at Christmas. I Googled around but it seems like this is an unofficial designation for a type of Cognac and Courvoisier no longer makes it or if they still do make it it's a limited supply kind of thing sent to stores for their fave customers.
Now my Dad also forbade me from spending hundreds of dollars on this quest but I'd like to make the old man happy as he's done a lot for me. Napoleon being a hard to find bottle what would be something comparable, the Courvoisier XO? He's not opposed to a surprise under the tree from time to time. What would /r/cognac buy their Dad if they were looking to spend somewhere in the 150-200 range and knowing it would be something for special occasions?

My latest purchase! Looking really forward to try it.

Treasures (either way or another they are to me) and I would like some info on them please :)
A few years ago, I inherited these from my grand parents when they were clearing things out. I would like to ask for more information regarding the few cognacs that I attained among other bottles of alcohol I got from them.
Thanks!
