Napoleon XO is one of the brandies with the most counterfeit products in the Chinese market. Because Napoleon is just a common name for this wine, it is not a registered trademark. Therefore, many domestic wine merchants play by the side and call their brandy Napoleon. .
The identification method is also very simple
First of all, the authentic Napoleon XO Cognac should be Courvoisier XO in English. The Courvoisier is the real Napoleon Cognac brand. This is actually The name of the founder of this wine. He was a good friend of Napoleon, and Napoleon used the brandy he brewed as his royal wine, so everyone called it Napoleon Brandy. There is also the iconic Napoleon silhouette on the label.
Anything with Nepoleon (Napoleon’s name) on the label is definitely a fake wine. As mentioned above, the real Napoleon XO is Courvoisier XO. As for the word Nepoleon, it has a special meaning in brandy. , is a grade between VSOP and XO. Before the emergence of XO, it was the highest grade of brandy, so those Nepoleon XO or similar brandies are a joke. How can a brandy have two grades at the same time.
