25th March at 13.10pm: Apologies but my health has gone backwards rapidly in the past few days. After a conversation with Eleonora, at this moment running Hermitage is too much for us. Therefore the countries have all been temporarily removed and no orders can be placed. Please note orders received upto the time of this message will all be dispatched by today. Earlier messages now deleted from the orange banner but note I hope by mid to late next week I can get involved again with the business and reopen the website to E.U countries. New product releases, I have written content for five new aromatics and the plan was, and still is, to get to ten, and release them all in one lot. This will happen across early April. At the sametime the lab is finished, we have set up and we will get staff employed. Written as my own objective this year for the business remains the same, that being to end the stop start and get Hermitage in a position whereby it continues to flourish with or without my daily involvement. Thank you, Adam : | PS - We will reply to emails we may receive upon our return.

Adam Michael has this to say “The aroma is bursting full of dry wine, tartness and very fruity- dry floral qualities, and I must add that it is very well rounded, fulsome, with no harshness or fatty aspects throughout. I do prefer the green cognac over this white material because I find the aroma of the green cognac more interesting, quirkier and fun. Within perfumery and in trace amounts white cognac pairs very well with methyl anthranilate to create a super grapey-wine note, also useful in trace amounts added to floral accords, imparting sparkle and sophistication and personally I look to this material for adding “pretty effects” within Oriental floral themed compositions.
Produced by steam distilling the aromatically rich by product of cognac – dried fermented and distilled grape tissue, clear in colour to pale yellow and of a pourable viscosity.”

On of my favourite materials. A wonderful balance between fruity and boozy…. and i mean real boozy! Very few materials have a true boozy note, but this is such a clear and pronounced aroma, and it works such wonders with florals and fruits.

It is indeed a boozy note and a strong bedfellow to use so I recommend working in dilution (say 10%, or even 5%) to trial it and get to know it. As the earlier reviewer said, it pares exceptionally well with florals; in my case with the more narcotic white florals, like jasmine sambac. I find it works amazingly with white rose too, as the lemon edge of that rose works a treat with the boozy grape scent of the cognac. An oil that has limitless potential once you get to know it.

One of the key ingredients in making a cognac/brandy accord and also as Adam mentioned, a grape one. It’s not that boozy as the green one, a little more tempered and well rounded, not that harsh, easier to work with compared to the green one. It adds lift to compositions, I personally haven’t tried it with florals but paired with Oakwood CO2, Vanilla Oleoresin and Benzoin Resinoid will give a nice brandy composition.
