Croizet Réserve Particulière (1894)

Croizet Réserve Particulière was introduced in 1997, a beautiful decanter bottled with precious 1860 vintage Cognac, one of the favorite's of Benjamin Léon Croizet, distilled by his father, the other being a 1842 vintage distilled by his infamous grandfather Léon Croizet, Napoleon Bonaparte's sommelier.

After about two years the last remaining 1860 was bottled and after careful consideration the 1894 vintage became its successor. In total Croizet released 4 different decanters of which some carried a vintage year on their neck label while others came with a certificate stating vintage years and date of bottling. Besides the aforementioned 1860 and 1894 vintages Croizet also released some decanters containing a 1811 Fine Champagne.

This decanter is believed to contain the 1894 vintage, although it is bottled in the same Baccarat decanter commissioned for the 1811 vintage, without the engraving though.
