RARE YEAR OF THE COMET COGNAC
These bottles were inherited by the present owner from her father, a man who purchased in his youth, at the beginning of the 20th-century, a liquor store in Manhattan. These bottles are believed to be a part of that store's cache. At one point, the consignor related, there were half a dozen of these 1811s. The rest have been consumed over the past century.
Napoleon Grande Fine Champagne Impériale Cognac--Vintage 1811
Lot 189 level: 10.0cm below cork; cracked wax capsule, torn U.S. Internal Revenue distilled spirits tax strip over capsule, bin soiled and nicked label. Lot 190 level: 9.0cm, US Internal Revenue distilled spirits tax strip intact over cork; bin soiled and lightly nicked labels
Both bottles have slightly shrunken corks commensurate with age. Both are bottled in squat, green molded glass. Tax stamps appear to be early 20th century. Back labels state 'conserved in wood since its origin. 80 proof. Imported by Hearn Dept. Stores, Inc. 14th St, 5th Ave NYC.' Images available on request.
