How to best enjoy a $250 dollar bottle of cognac?

[iroast]

Use it as a mouthwash. Instead of spitting it out, you swallow it! 😀

$250 a bottle is better than $125 per shot.

i don't like cognac.

I don't really like mixers in my spirits, if I want a long drink I'll get a beer.

I'm not against mixers in principle, I think everyone should enjoy their drinks the way they want, I just like the flavour of neat spirits.

I can appreciate this...but now and again I get a thirst for a few mint juleps. i usually start mixing them 50/50 and end up with mostly bourbon at the end of the night.

usually a beer guy myself, however. i bought some makers and bushmills today to have around if i want liquor, but i spend most of my drinking money on beer

You could use it to preserve a truly rare specimen, maybe an endangered mouse or bat.

I just got rid of an endangered mouse. He became endangered when I set a trap with old Nutella in it, and became extinct some time last night :^D

Double your enjoyment by lighting your cigar with a $100 bill.

Give it to someone and buy a $50 bottle of cognac that is probably just as good.

The more money you spend on something you get less and less return in quality.

Edit: someone probably gave it to you haha.

Slurp it out of a hooker's cooch

Pouring that in there would wipe out a whole ecosystem.

mix it with soda and chug it.

I go for the cheap stuff!

Wow...booze and a vibrator. You know how to party!

 

[jacktesterson]

Sell it for $225 and buy something that lasts much longer, and is more fun.

I'm a regular Brandy drinker. I'd say taste it strait, if its not the flavor you like then mix it with a splash of cola and water, over ice.

The best Cognac I've had was in a bottle that I couldn't read the label(French) and had been in the bottle for over 40 years. It was the best brandy I've ever had and I've tried many different bottles.

Sounds like Hennessy paradis. Good stuff won't last very long. 🙂 you don't need anything extra. Just a glass and enjoy.

Its a cigar

 

[blankslate]

Use is as the secret ingredient in a few gallons of jungle juice along with the other usual ingredients like everclear, vodka, etc. etc.

 

[Anubis]

sell it

It wasn't bad either, I'd kind of gone off them recently.

Last time I had a very expensive bottle of cognac I drank it slowly over the course of 2 months.

I would pour a shot and throw some ice in with it and just sip it super slow while I played chess with my friend; good times indeed. The water from the ice dilutes it a little and lets you get a little more of the taste.

i'd buy bottles of cheaper cognac and store the nice cognac until you've drunk enough cheap cognac to appreciate the difference. i've got a few nice XO's from gramps too but my plan to do the same deviated into whiskeys/bourbon/scotch instead of cognac.. so now they just sit around collecting dust.

In a nice cognac glass, neat, and listen to his "back in the day" stories on leather recliner in front of a real wood fireplace, after a fine dinner.

Depending on the brand, some of those cognacs are paired with cigars, some are paired with chocolates. I don't usually bother with any of that and just take it by itself.
