Yes, and again we are reporting about Cognac Conjure. Why? Because Kim Birkedal-Hartmann and Ludacris really give a major marketing lesson when it comes to positioning a new cognac in the US. The Cognac just received a 92 rating at Wine Enthusiast, while Ludacris does not get tired of promoting the french blend.

“Conjure, the Anti-Snob Cognac”
Here is what Wine Enthusiast wrote:
92 Conjure Cognac (Birkedal Hartmann, Jarnac, Cognac, France), 40% abv, $30. This is an anti-snob Cognac, accessible, affordable and straightforward. The amber-orange liquid is fragrant with nuts and a touch of orange, with dark chocolate undertones. The flavors are relatively sweet, but not overwhelmingly so, with notes of honey and bitter almond. It finishes a little hot, but with a lingering caramel tone. Mellow and mouthwatering with a thick, slightly syrupy feel. It would be great in a Sidecar or other cocktails.
