  • I allow myself to make one extremely dumb purchase a year, and I decided I would buy a $3000 bottle of liquor. In this video, I will be taste testing and reviewing the Louis XIII Cognac Bottle. Reviewing with me is my Uncle Binh Nguyen from Food Addiction TV. If you enjoy this video, please leave a like and subscribe to my RUclips channel. I know it has been 3 years since my last video, but I seriously plan on doing more with the channel in the near future. Thanks for watching :)

    Believe it or not, I actually bought a $2500 slab of Japanese A5 Miyazaki Wagyu Prime Rib. I filmed it last year as my stupid purchase, but the footage was out of focus and unusable. I plan on buying another slab and redoing the video. Be on the look out for that video. Thanks for watching this video!

    You confirmed what I have suspected. The bottle and packaging is totally what you are paying for. About a decade ago I paid $300 for a bottle of Remy Martin XO in a very nice bottle. My friends and I had a very sophisticated evening drinking it. I really didn't feel that it was all that different from any inexpensive Cognac. It crosses my mind now, that if I bought a cheaper bottle of Cognac and filled the XO bottle with it, everyone (that I know) would be convinced that it's the real thing. That's what you should do when you finish the Cognac in that beautiful bottle. Just get a much cheaper bottle of Remy Martin and refill the bottle. You will continue to impress friends and family and eventually feel that you got your money's worth. Thanks for this extremely honest review!

      Tbh I weren't 'blown away' by it either, sure its far less harsh than the standard VSOP level but I'd say the Richard Hennessy for similar price is a better drink, for more dynamic, if anything this is a bit flat but who cares just enjoy what you enjoy init.

This compared with around $10 for a bottle of VSOP, and a bottle of Dom Perignon cost less than than $30.
      It seems to me that over time, it's the high end stuff that escalated greatly in price. A new bottle of Louis XIII now retails for about $4,500 in Canada.

  • @albertmiller3082

    Fine cognac deserves to be sipped. Knocking back “shots” is no way to consume such a rich liquor. Let the spirit sit one minute in the glass, after pouring, for each year in the cask. A 40 year old spirit needs a good half hour to fully relax into any glass after nearly half a century sleeping in a warehouse barrel.
    Popping it open & doing shots (as if it was Jim Beam) is dishonoring everything special about the rare bottle.
    It may NOT be worth $3k but damn, give the liquor a decent chance to develop before you slowly savor the fragrance and sip the pour. Evaluating even drugstore cognac successfully requires that you consume the beverage appropriately.

    I had some one time. This girl I was dating invited me over her Uncle's for Christmas. He was drunk and I saw he had this, and I know you don't get if you don't ask, so I hinted, "oh, how does that taste? I heard a lot about how great it was..." and he said "Let's have some!" We went out to the back patio with cigars and our Louis XIII shots. When I was ashing the cigar it fell into the shot glass. I smoothly grabbed his shot glass and annexed that. He went to grab the shot of Louis XIII with the ash in it, held it up to look at it, then shrugged as if to say "well, that's $200 so whatever" and downed it. But it just tasted like every other bottle of Cognac/Brandy/whatever I ever had. Then again, mixing alcohols, smoking cigars, and not knowing what I'm doing probably all had something to do with that. lol.

    I have an automotive channel. The first time I drove a BMW was in 1990. I drove a 1990 750il. It cost $65,000 back then. A Cadillac 1990 Deville cost about $31,000. The difference was night and day. I ran 145 mph in this 296 hp 5 liter v12 like it was nothing.

    XO bottles means the youngest blend in the bottle is a minimum of 10y. Not 6.

    • @punfaced6536
      @punfaced6536 4 года назад

      Recently, it varies. 6 minimum is what we usually see in most classified XO's, but a 10 year minimum is the most common case for more deserving brands.

    I inherited a bottle of Louis XIII but have yet to have the balls to open it. The most expensive bottle I've ever opened and drank is Johnny Walker Blue and I had the same impression you did upon taking my first sip..."tastes like alcohol" 🤣😂 Was definitely underwhelming, not worth the price and, I expect, that Louis XIII would be just about the same experience.

    It's a fine aged cognac. The value is not only in it's taste but in it's rarity, history, age, distillation craftsmanship, quality and the incredible care it went in to produce this. When taking a sip, you must respect and embody all these qualities to truly appreciate it. It's like comparing between a Rolex and Timex, both watches keep good time but one has an intrinsic and timeless quality while the other does not. Cheers.

      its just a drink. thats the sales pitch they pull on suckers that have too much money. the physical appearance of a watch is a very large aspect of the product itself. You cant imitate the look of a rolex without spending the money it takes to make it look that way, and everyone can tell the difference. But liquor? you can for sure imitate the taste. Every watch those wine tasting videos where “experts” cant even tell the difference between $1000 wine and bottom shelf wine?

    Good tip about giving the drink 1 minute rest time in a glass for each year it spent in a barrel.
    I was drinking a 12 yo bottle of booze yesterday but had to give it a half an hour rest in a glass for the scent of too much alcohol to go away. After 30 mins I could sniff the nice aroma it produced and the drink became much much smoother. So yeah, definitely have got to wait.
    I'm surprised they didn't put this info in the instructions on the website on how to drink it, where those guys read it. What a shame!

  • @leonarddavies288
    @leonarddavies288 Год назад

    Great honest review I love cognac and unfortunately just can’t afford a bottle of this and I’ve always wanted to try it , love the Remy Martin XO love it !! I’m English and in England on Amazon a 35ML bottle of Remy XO is usually £70 (pounds) I think today’s exchange rate is $1.2 US 🇺🇸 to £1 GBP 🇬🇧 so £70 is only maybe $80 if that . I just work a regular job as a Fork lift driver and my salary is only £15-17 per hour I guess I could buy a bottle throughout the year and it would leave me very short for my rent on a 2 bedroom apartment in Liverpool is £650 per month and it’s a nice apartment. I’d be short for groceries and as one of you guys said 3 grand is a hell of a lot of money for just the regular working class guy or gal you could get a used car , have a nice holiday abroad , get a top of the range OLED tv . Clothes etc etc … I can afford the XO and that is not like all the time I like the 1738 and that is £49.99 here in Tesco which is the UK’s biggest supermarket chain . Like your guys Walmart we have Asda the second largest and Walmart own Asda they have roll back and the always low prices slogan 😅 you can tell it is Walmart they are cheaper than Tesco usually and in the U.K. the sales tax VAT is already added to everything so the price on the shelf is the price you pay . The Hennessy was on sale yesterday for £39 and I the Remy Martin original was £43 .
    It was great seeing you open and taste it and show the packaging and just be down to earth about the reality of it , well done guys very humble and great talking points , I watched a video of some master distiller some French guy who makes this stuff doing a review and it was way way over the top pretentious like if you had been touched by god just drinking this Cognac I liked the realism of this and Cognac is my drink of choice I usually have it on the rocks and I’ll usually have the VSOP the VS or the XO in my cabinet. Tesco actually do their own version of XO and it’s the Finest brand which is their signature branded generic branding for the most expensive items throughout the store like Tesco Finest Fillet steak or Tesco Finest ice cream or Tesco Finest cooked meats etc etc . They had a bottle of cognac that was just Tesco value Cognac £14 😣 it’s not good , their own brand XO is £37 and it is a lovely drop well worth the price a massive 10/10 for value . The Remy Martin XO was £68 just checked online they have the 35 ml bottle for that and the 700ml bottle is £135 . Expensive still but it is so moreish 😂 I don’t mind the Martell V.S either . I enjoyed this review it was exactly what I needed to see , down to earth and you two guys were just keeping it real . I like scotch too usually single malt and the 15 year old Glenfiddich is under £40 and good value , I remember buying the Johnnie Walker blue label scotch and it costing £170 😮 and although it was very nice and presentation was second to none it was just not not worth it I’m afraid , this Louis XIII is the favourite drink of Jay-Z and was enjoyed by Napoleon 😂 👍

    Get yourself a small glass for boiled water. Get your snifter and pour 1.5 ounces of Cognac and let rest for 30 minutes. while resting boil water and pour in small glass do not fill to top. Place snifter of cognac on top of glass with boiled water and let warm cognac. Sip and enjoy the full flavor trust me you’ll learn why you paid 3k

If I'm buying a $1.7 mil Bugatti but a $300k Lamborghini or Ferrari is just as nice, why am I spending the extra dough for show? I don't care if it took 10 years, 100 years, or 1000 years to distill if the taste is barely noticeable? It's not $2940 more noticeable!
