Good, but there are other VSOP cognacs that taste better and cost less. This does well for mixing but at it's price range it doesn't make sense to do so.
Smells so sweet, tastes great, it's a little bit on the lighter side but it's amazing.

If you like spirit forward, anise flavor liqueur, give this one a try.
Sharper and more astringent than Enrico Toro Torella (which I hope this store will carry soon).
Genepy's alcohol-forward profile will hit your sinus with an astringent punch.
85% alcohol forward
15% sweet
Nose is 85% alcohol
15% Anise
Taste is:
99% Anise
1% Fennel
In summary, the overall taste is 85% bitter Anise, with maybe 15% sweet fennel.
As a Green Chartreuse substitute, use Genepy in mixed beverages for customers who prefer a dryer cocktail. It definitely does not add any sweetness.

To my taste, Génépy is similar to Chartreuse Green, with a little less complexity and a little more anise. I bought it to make a specific cocktail; it's interesting, but I'm not sure I would buy it again. Not a bartender's staple like Chartreuse, I don't think.

Great packing and fast delivery!
