How was the Louis? I'll never be able to afford even a pour of it so I'd like to live vicariously through you lol

Not worth the price, even in the special cut leaded crystal sipping cups. It was the best cognac I've ever had, but not nearly the best brandy, and I don't even like brandy that much.

Now the wagyu, that was absolutely worth the price. 48z for $190, so about $4/z, pre-cook weight. I had about $15 worth, one mouthful, and I would have been willing to pay for what I got if it wasn't free.

But the Louis XIII at least satisfied my life goal to eat something aged longer than I am old.

Eating cognac? Sounds like it might have curdled.
