Do you associate yourself with power, resolve and adventure?
Well, the latest incarnation of Courvoisier’s L’ Essence, The Year of the Horse, is just for you. In commemoration of the 2014 Chinese New Year, which kicked off this past January, the venerable cognac brand released the L’ Essence, which blends notes of sandalwood, cigar leaves, toffee, marzipan, honey, and fresh mountain flowers along with a palate of licorice, dried plum and apricot.
Dreaming of a rocks glass filled with this goodness already? Well, the limited edition bottle comes with a Baccarat decanter—engraved with an image of Napoleon on his horse—along with a hefty price tag: $3500.
But, hey, if you were born in the year of the horse, like legendary singer Aretha Franklin and supermodel Cindy Crawford, then you are probably worth it.
