Made with Asbach 8y (German brandy, never drink any Asbach without an age statement though) and liked it a lot. Surprisingly chocolately despite not many drops of the chocolate bitters landing in the drink. Not too sweet, and almost not fruity at all. Flavors melded quite well.
This is a great after dinner drink. It is a bit sweet, but not overly. The flavours of the Amaretto and Cherry Brandy balances well with the Cognac. This is not a drink for someone who wants the Cognac to be in the forward. Great.
