About this product
Product Information
This fully revised third edition of Cognac: The story of the world's greatest brandy provides an authoritative account of how the much-loved spirit is produced and matured. Nicholas Faith, the world's leading authority on cognac, explores the reasons for the spirit's complex character, and reveals its fascinating history. Cognac is an extraordinary and unparalleled collection of insights into the world's finest brandy. The first edition of this book, published in 1986, won the Veuve Clicquot award in the US and the Deinhard/Wine Magazine award in Britain. In 2005 the second edition was awarded the Andr Simon prize, Britain's premier wines and spirits writing prize. This new edition includes a fully updated directory of the top producers and their brandies - including the author's tasting notes - and two new sections on tasting and mixing: a selection of cognac cocktails and how to make them, and revelations on the associations made between brandy and food. This completely updated edition of Nicholas Faith's classic guide, which includes the best products available in 2015, is a thorough and engaging resource - the essential companion for every cognac enthusiast.

Reviews
Faith has a way of writing that is functional yet aesthetic - it reminds me somehow of Leonardo da Vinci's design and invention sketches and it's difficult to read his work without being drawn in. I started this book a little indifferent to Cognac. By the time I was half way through, I was hooked.
