hursday, January 7th, 2016, Bordeaux awakens under a winter drizzle that does nothing to dampen my enthusiasm. Today, I'm meeting two Norwegian couples, true connoisseurs of very old cognacs. My mission? To reveal the secrets of small producers and taste exceptional cognacs far from conventional tourist routes.
Follow our adventure meeting the "craft makers" of extraordinary Cognacs!
Lisa contacted me almost a year ago to organize an exceptional day in Cognac with her family to celebrate together her father's 90th birthday!
Lisa said, "My dad's not just a 90-year-old man like you've never seen before, my dad's is some James Bond!"
So, since I know that Lisa is a travel agent who works in the United States in Dallas, I immediately understood what would make her happy... So I organized a very special day in Cognac for the whole family.
A news item has recently been reported in various media..... it is an illegal driver who picked up a couple of Thai tourists in Paris and threatened them to get the incredible amount of 247€ for a 40 km service!
So how do you avoid being trapped and how do you recognize a regular and official driver... I am a VTC, both a driver and a registered private driver, operating in Bordeaux and Cognac area and I list the elements to be checked.
