woah I had thought Bourbon Guild went inactive and today I discover they've just moved to a new channel! and reviewing one of my favorite spirits no less. cheers boys looking forward to more boozin' content!
I always wondered if that thing was worth the hype. Don’t drink cognac on the regular but it might be a nice addition to a collection. It looks great. Thanks for the review.
I FINALLY found you guys. I was a LOYAL follower of the Bourbon Guild Review Show. Glad to see you guys again. I have to get used to you guys' scoring system LOL but great to see you guys!!
Curiosity Public cheers!! Yes it took me a while but I found it lol. Now I can have a cigar and drink and catch up with all the videos LOL
Pearls before swine. If you think Hennessy XO is an 82/83 you shouldn't be allowed to drink anything more expensive than Budwiser. Dillon was right.
Great review guys, I'm more of a scotch man but like Congac and did a review of this with a friend on my channel.
I’m with Dillon.
if anybody is watching this and reading the comments do not listen to the negative reviews... hennessy XO is one of the finest cognacs u can drink for the price the next level of cognac ur paying no less than $500
“It’s still gold, BOY!” 😂🤣 That was funny. 12:58
I have twice tried this as I mistakenly bought a bottle for the bar I was managing and it was a slow seller due to the price, but a few customers were upsold to it when "giving it large" to show off. Can't say I was blown away by it. I think the low proof waters down the depth and complexity.
You guys are great and it hurt to see Dillon bullied by your gold scores. Also, the synth levels sounded balanced to the regular audio...Dutch channeling his John Carpenter.
Coco-Cola XO!? Hilarious, guys! 🤣
Thanks need something to get me through the day.
dillon really be saying grande champagne region like an american at a taco bell
People pay over $170 for Weller 12 and it has a screw top for packaging. So be kind when talking value of the XO. 😅 Try the Paradis if you can...it’s def better than XO.
You hit the nail on the head. It's crazy that people are willing to shell out $99 for Weller special reserve too. And you look at something like this, or some of the other age stated sherry cask/bourbon cask scotch and it gives you perspective. One guy i know dropped $2000 for Pappy 20. I told him, why didn't you just get a Macallan 25 for 300 bucks less? No answer. Ridiculous. It took me about 4 years of looking to buy a pappy 20 a little over retail. Glad i didn't drop 2 grand on that.
You guys should try Hardy XO cognac
there's some great cognacs with serious age out there if you know what to look for...
and not for whisky type money neither
fun facts guys big companies like Hennessy, Remy Martin, and Martell add additives to keep their tastes consistant for their fans.
Heck yeah I read the label when I spend that kind of money lol
What size is that bottle?
375mL? Or 750mL?
Dilan 100%
I don´t know if cognac is supposed to be taken seriously. Especially the big lables like Hennessy. They are allowed to add sugar, caramel coloring and even Boise - which is adding more of woody character to the taste. It´s not worth the money at all. It´s just a cheap shit in a fancy bottle.
I drink henny xo for fun!
Hennessy, Martell, Courvoisier, and Remy Martin are for house wives that drink Mimosas and Rose' wine. Find a Cognac that is interesting.
Hennessy XO is 💎 for sure
If you like leather Hennessy xo is it
If you like smoothness and paying only 50 dollars duesse vsop is it
Duesse vsop is best for smoothness and price
Ever thought about a cognac vertical drink through?
@@CuriosityPublic Glad to hear that, I don't know much about cognac but am interested in exploring it more
Damn it's $220 here.
👍👍👍
Hey guys, new subscriber here. Ive been interested in adding a cognac to my collection and have tried a few. The one I started with was RM1738 and unfortunately wasn’t that impressed with it. I’ve been looking at Martell Blue Swift, can you guys review it if you are doing more cognacs. Thx!
Thanks for subscribing! We're definitely going to review more cognac in the future. We'll add it to our list, thanks for the request.
I posted a a short on my channel, with a diamond winning Hennessy. Heads up it’s paradis. Not the imperial. Also there is James Hennessy, and the infamous Richard Hennessy
I tried Hennessy XO about 4yrs ago and seriously was shocked at how bitter the back end was...now I wasn't sure how long the bottle was up on shelf at this bar or how full the bottle was (possibly oxidized) but it was the worst XO Cognac I've tasted by Far...Remy Martin XO was great, Martell Cordon Bleu is better, Courvoisier XO was better, Torres 20yr is better, A.De Fussigny is better ...I will try again at a bar that has a Close to Full bottle and reexamine
@@Dafoodmaster Hennesy is garbage there is a reason no one drink this sh^& in France
Big difference in scoring lol
You would choose XO over Louis, WHATTTTTT!!!
Martell XO
This isn't even good Cognac lol. It's heavily overpriced and full of additives.
lies lies and more lies.. real cognac sippers know hennessy XO is one of the best cognacs u can taste for the price. anything better ur paying over $500
Love Dillon's face, Ahhhh 7! I can't respect your opinion.
Duesse vsop is smoother and only 50 dollars
Hennessy xo is leathery and bitter 👎
It’s vastly overrated. Same with Martell XO.
I can't believe people drink this paint thinner, its terrible.
Once the Chinese guy opens his mouth and said he prefers Hennessy XO to Louis XIII cognac I stopped watching lol.
Jules: "...A refined cola..."
This is the first time ever that Dillon would be excused for pulling his Texas Instruments Ti-84 out of his hip holster and clubbing Jules with it - of course while simultaneously calculating the hypotenuse of his forearm and the estimated time the calculator will arrive on Jules' newsboy cap.
Dillon meat-grinding French words. - OK Jules, pick up that big pot of ginisang munggo we all know you have sitting on your stove and pour it on Dylan's head. I now see why you folks don't normally review French juice.
Dutch: You get the "Diamond" award for getting deep under Dillon's skin multiple times and the high explosive fist bumping with Dillon's alter ego Jules.
