Is it worth buying
What kinda of feeling does it give and how long does a shot last
@@toocool8050 ok I can answer this. I’ve bought a bottle once, still own the bottle. First off, buying a bottle is only worth it if you have people you want to share it with. And if they are willing to throw in it even better/. But restaurants do sell 1 1/2 ounce pours and 2 ounce pours also. Ruth’s Chris has it and they bring out this special waiter to tell you about it and it’s pretty cool. Also I remember the price being $200 a pour not $300. However the market for these has increased since I last bought mine 9 years ago. Basically China has been buying them up, increasing the demand and cost in the US. The issue is they can’t just make more, they are 80-100 years old. And if they just start opening more barrels, then they won’t be able to have them age as long, so the price stays high.
Ok now what’s the taste like. It’s got a smooth Velvet like texture, almost viscous in quality and surprisingly it doesn’t burn much at all. Like most whisky or bourbons or cognacs have some serious strong burn you have to get through in order to pick up the notes of flavor. This does not. The flavor hits you instantly. First you notice a little earthy syrup wood like note, then a sweet nutmeg like spice comes through where you experience a real full bodied flavor over the full tongue. Sip it, don’t shoot it, you don’t need to. Then you swallow, allowing air into the roll off your tongue and down your throat, allowing the olfactory receptors to do their work, a little syrup like fruitiness comes through with some rose undertones, and then you breath out, allowing the alcohol portion to leave your mouth. And I kid you not, for the next 20-30 min, with every rub of the tongue to the roof of your mouth, every breath slowly inhaled, and every swallowed bit of salivate, in my opinion, derives a sensational wonder of slightly fruity, fragrant, vanilla like Carmel. It’s insane how long the flavor lasts. You could sip and eat some amazing steak and the flavor transfers onto the steak. It’s like it clings to your tastebuds and nose and just let’s you know, hey, I’m that freaking great and sticking with you.
So is it worth it? Well as amazing as the flavor is, I think what makes it that great is it’s comparison, alcohol. Sip any vodka or tequila or whisky, etc out of a low ball glass and it’s going to suck in comparison. However the taste isn’t like a dr. Pepper cream soda. I mean if I picked a soda flavor to be similar that would be it. But my point is, it’s still alcohol. Similar to a wine, for people who don’t drink a lot of wine and love it, they will say grape juice is better no matter what kind of wine you give them. I don’t drink anything anymore but in my opinion a great bottle of wine is far better and much more complex than any cup of sugary grape juice.
So you have to ask yourself if your pallet can appreciate something as complex as the cognac yet, in order to appreciate it.
It costs around $3200 these days unless your lucky and find one at a liquor store that hasn’t been bough in 10 years and they still haven’t changed the price from back then. If you do find that, it will cost around $1700.
So that would be my advice is try to find nice liquor stores that have a lot of unique bottles and see if you can’t find one for less, because the internet will price it all the same, and vegas will be about $1000 more than the internet.
So then, is it worth it. Well here’s my opinion on it. For flavor, even though nothing else I’ve ever tried is the same flavor and lasts so long in the mouth it isn’t worth it. But...
BUT...
When you consider the nostalgia of it... the fact that the people who made it 100 years ago!!! The craft that went into it and they couldn’t even enjoy it. The people that made it knew that they would never be alive long enough to enjoy it, that their kids probably wouldn’t be alive to enjoy it. It’s something special. It’s a piece of history, preserved in a bottle that no one that was alive back then is today. That idea blows my mind. And when drinking something that old from that time period, it all of the sudden becomes worth it! You realize 100 years ago, woman were just getting the right to vote, WWI ended and the troops were just starting to enjoy being back home with their families. The economy was starting to boom again, and everyone was driving around going 20 mph in their Model T’s. Horse and stagecoaches where dying off on the streets. Jazz bands were all the rage and new flamboyant dancing was becoming a thing. Old money was becoming equalized by new money young people who were bootlegging alcohol in their secret passcode basements of drug stores. People were enjoying life again. And it wasn’t just in America. Economy was booming in France too. The Art Deco period was about to burst open, America influenced jazz cafes and dancing in France too, something very different than their culture.
Medicine like penicillin antibiotics were finally a thing. Tv’s didn’t exist, planes weren’t around, and all the nonsense of political correctness and special pronouns were not even a fathom of an idea. Hardly anyone was fat. People made decent wages doing regular jobs. People went to church on Sunday, and acted with friendly smiles, real conversation and polite manors. No keyboard warriors or Twitter trolls back then. Antarctica was just recently discovered! It was a different time back then that we will never know. And yes we can own things from that time period, but to consume them, to enjoy what they enjoyed. To taste the same AOC grapes (not the idiot politician in New York) that they ate back then, in the cognac you get to drink today, is something special. To me anyways it is remarkably special. At least to do once in your life. So that’s my opinion on all of it. And if you buy the bottle, once it’s gone, the smell will always be there, mine still has the smell ten years later, and every now and then you can open it up and smell it and it will take you back to your own memories of the night or nights you drank it.
So here’s my cost analysis on your question, is it worth it? It would be worth around $50 a pour if just for the flavor, $80 a pour when appreciating the craftsmanship that went into making it, $150 a pour when realizing how much time was needed to have past for us to enjoy it. But it gets that special $200-$300 a pour when we put it all together and appreciate the nostalgia of if all, and reminisce back in time 100 years ago to what life was like then as we finish our steak and lobster dinner, take our last sip of wine and sit back and relax and begin to watch the sunset outside with our crystal lowball glass in hand. As we gaze at the large pine trees in view, taking in the smell of the wonderful sweet depth of Carmel aroma of our king Louis xiii Cognac. We notice that smell is combined with another, as we step out onto the wood porch, the large Old Pine’s, and it’s in that moment we begin to realize it’s just us and the trees outside that are still around who are able to enjoy a piece of life 100 years ago. And when your first sip hits and you look to the special gorgeous girl next to you that your in love with, you both are transformed to a life that existed we will never know. But can appreciate right there in that moment and never forget.
So yeah, it’s worth it. And that is one of my memories of drinking it.
Now I will watch the video. I wonder if this guys feels the same as I do
@@aceggkspade958 You need a hobby
For $800 you got rid of A cancerous relationship. it might be the best $800 you’ve ever spent.
Gettin' myself my 3rd bottle for my birthday. I'm gonna try getting one for each birthday for 10 years. I'm just gonna keep them in their cases in a cool, dry, dark room & never open them. My sons won't even know I have them 'til the reading of my will & they gotta figure out how to either enjoy drinking them or monetize them 20 or 30 years from now. I guess they could do both. Open 1 bottle to sip on & sell the rest. Either way... Surprise from dad boys!
In my hometown that bottle is$2,999...I took a picture of it to show my brother
I have had a couple shots of it, my bro-in-law had settled a lawsuit lol and said drinks on me, most expensive stuff you got. Not sure what the bill was but it was indeed very good cognac
You’re car note…… Ahhh, Wealth😂
came straight from the dna channel to show some love for big dea! hope you wearing those oregons
Can u express or relate similar taste with any other bottles? Is it woodsy oaky or caramelized lol etc i want to see if every bottle taste similar or its just from different aged
I would love to have a small glass this Christmas season. Would love that. So how was it? What did it taste like? Was it the best you ever had? Better than that Privilege?
You are a good man based on how you tell the story, your friend is not your friend, that is a parasite. I bet if you had better editing and shorter videos you would get more views. Thanks for the story subbed
We have departed
Excellent evening !!!! J'ai apprécie Louis Treinze sur un bateau de croisière une fois.
Le barman était extrêmement génereux. Ce fut aussi une excellente soirée! Je vous salue, à la bonne vie!
Dope vid bro i have a couple friends who always pull those scandalous typa moves🤣 those friends are the ones that teach you to not trust anybody on this earth🤦♂️
He is not your Friend, He is your open ENEMY.
I haven't had any, but what I wanna know is. Is it worth the price?
Some people ask is it worth it? Is it worth buying that expensive of a bottle? What does it taste like from someone else’s point of view? I’ll offer up mine.
ok I can answer this. I’ve bought a bottle once, still own the bottle. First off, buying a bottle is only worth it if you have people you want to share it with.

the longest comment ever
Up in Canada, that beautiful bottle in that magnificent presentation case would set you back $4,800. But just CDN dollars, so I guess it's okay. That guy never realized what a good friend he was about to lose. Hope it was worth it, to him.
Thank you! Good video, good story!
From your sneakers collection to here.Shout out to DJ
Thats one heck of a rack of glass in the background.... so jealous of the top shelf
That glass rack looks too flimsy to support so many bottles.
I remember when this was $1700 a bottle. That was 15 years ago
With friends like that who needs enemies 😂😂😂…. Shout out DJ’s Pop 🧬 show 🫡
I had a bottle of the Louis XIII for the 2022 New Year celebration however I experienced an unfortunate break in and the bottle was stolen among other expensive possessions...... My jewelry (irreplaceable) and the bottle (Louis XIII) was the heartbreak of the violation, including the half dollar silver coins I collected over a ten period! 😤😡😢😪
Ur good man, because I would of made buhl wash the dishes afterwards buhl and I are to rumble. 😂😂
You a better friend then me, cause me and the homie gotta box after that.
Me and my best friend banks went out on a company dinner and we put some on the bill everybody's dinner and drinks came out to like 3000 bucks or 4 shots were like 1200 and that was like 2004 good times thanks Dr. Manly 😂 😂
I hope you found a new friend after that night 😆🤣
Funny story 😂but was the cognac worth it??? How was it ?? U bought a bottle..so does that mean it’s worth that 3000$ they want for it? Or XO Remy Martin is just as good?
Dam what type of work do you do lol
Never be ashamed to ask "how much?"
Very funny entertaining story,thanks for sharing.
You tell a very good story sir. Gotta get that friend back though. Sounds like he was a close friend or I don't see you letting him off so easy
2023 saying hello
I knew you looked familiar I’m subscribed to your son 😭
Ever tried Pappy Van Winkle? You cannot even buy it.
Key word few shots
Cool ass vid though, just ran across your channel. Subbed
Thanks
Damn you got got
I remember 19 years ago that was 999$usd. I just paid 3499$ a week ago.
Kids are kids.
Not here to judge but you are a good person. That friend would have gotten it from me. Don’t let people take advantage of you like that. I think you probably have a great job and they think it’s nothing to you. It’s on principal alone. If they are sending bottles to tables without asking you and getting you out of the house get some Louis XIII then they have zero respect for you except to use you for money. That is crazy but I’m also happy you were classy and not do what anyone else here would have done. I’d cut them off asap though. Cheers!
REAL TALK!!!! Watch out Bro!!! Time to move on!!! No more outings like that because that is not cool!!!
Lol like fml. Funny story, should have been like well you got me next pay day right??
Ask for a seperate bill?
Wish it was that easy
Oh gosh no! Tell me, he at least got you an extra good birthday of christmas gift.
You daman
😅
Oh hell nah!!!
Are You Guys still friends?
Yep... but definitely don't talk like we use to
Got hit over the head
😂
I hope you realize thats not your friend. You had an eye opening priceless lesson for 800 dollars take it in stride.
I'm a truck driver and automotive youtuber. I saw a video by SuperspeederRob where he talked about drinking Louis 13. I then watched a video of two Asians drinking a $3,000 bottle of L13. This is how I end up on your channel. After watching your video. I want to try this stuff now. Where in Atlanta can I get a shot?
I'm just from watching the exact video you mentioned. Crazy
You're a better friend than me because I would of choked my friend out for that
It's not the first time this happened. Other friends has sent bottles to a tables. On my Tab
@@bigdea71 That just isn't cool at all, I don't even know what I would have done in this situation or the bottles to the tables situation.
@@bigdea71 Shit friends lol.
lol.
so one night I'm out with my suicidal blonde girlfriend...we are in a hotel bar in new orleans sitting at a table...I see the Louis on the shelf and explain to her it's like 3 grand a bottle...so 10 minutes later of course she's MIA...finally I find her and she's sitting at the bar with a Chesire cat smile..well in true blonde form she has sweet talked the bartender into giving her a taste of the Louis, yeah she gave me part of it...
cool story tho..... Big DEA do a video on your bar and your liquor and some of your favorites.
😂😂😂🤦🏾♂️
Lol that’s why I got no friends ! They just cheap
$800 on the shots, then about $4,000 on the bottle. You should be divorced!
You should've stayed home, and I hoped you dumped that zero!!!
Sounds like we need to reevaluate the word friends……..
That sounds like a set up…..
I love Hubers..
