The blend is a tribute to the craft of Master Blender Patrick Raguenaud, and only a very small number of decanters have been released worldwide, making it a true collector's piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fresh orange, almond and vanilla, with a hint of spice and sandalwood.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bitter orange, nuts and peaches.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Marzipan and tropical fruit.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProducer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Maison Grand Marnier, France\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cognac and bitter-orange liqueur\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCognac:\u003c\/strong\u003e Grande Champagne hors d'âge, including a 70-year-old cognac\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDecanter:\u003c\/strong\u003e Handmade Baccarat crystal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 40% (80 proof)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e France\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to Enjoy It\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eQuintessence is made for slow sipping: pour a small measure, neat, into a tulip glass or snifter at room temperature and let it open for a few minutes.
