Hi, looking for a bottle of brandy for a gift, price range £25-£40
I dont drink the stuff but am sure there are some aficionados on here.

A decent Hennessy is my dads go to, or a Camus at Christmas0

Can get a decent bottle of Hennessy or Courvoisier for that range. Prefer Courvoisier myself, but Hennessy is the more widely regarded Courvoisier VSOP Cognac : The Whisky Exchange
Probably some lesser-known brands are better value/tasting, but these are my go-to0 -
I would add a vote for Courvoisier VSOP cognac.3

Look out for Renault Carte Noir.0 -
Hine Rare VSOP - slightly over budget but one of the best in your 'ish price range.

Yeah, that'll do fine if you're out of Brandy.

How about Rémy Martin?0

Soberano! I don't know much about brandy but I like this stuff.0

For personal drinking I prefer the cheaper stuff, as you're less conscious of how much each sip is costing!0

Metaxa two star. You wont wake up with a hangover because you wont wake up

For something a touch different, Martell Blue Swift0

I think I might need one after seeing that line up.4

Waitrose all day long, they're always running great deals. I'd only use WhiskyExchange if there was something special i was after, the odd saving you make on a £35 bottle will be lost on shipping.

Used to work in a shop that stocked Maxime Trijol - was never a brandy fan but it was lovely and a big hit with customers we'd give tasters to. Might be good if you were looking for something a bit different.

plenty of average brandy out there perfectly fine for putting in hot drinks. If you want to sip it neat like it’s meant to be then spend as much as you can.0
