    Can you post a picture? ... might be worth a few quid but you really need to post a picture. Anything interesting about the bottle ...i.e. is there a bottle Maker?

    And what sort of packaging ... all this helps determine value.

    The modern ones retail at about €350 if that's any help

    If it came in a Baccarat bottle it would probablyhave been worth a good bit.However it probably still have some value. As another poster said if they now retail for €350 you probably should use that as a guide.

    However you need to be careful and manage your expectations. I don't know if too many people in Ireland would collect cognac as say they would whiskey? However if this is collectable or valueable you also need to be aware of that too so you don't let it away for a song.

    This is obviously a decent bottling but if it is not overly "special" I would suggest selling for 20-30% less than the retail value given previously. Not sure where that as come from but if true then your looking at circa €250-280.

    However I have to be honest I know nothing about Cognac collecting and just running off my whiskey knowledge.

    I would suggest contacting these guys and see if they make you an offer and that will give you a start on value as they do buy and they do sell valuable cognacs'

    After that you could try contacting somewhere like the Four Seasons to see if they are interested.
