Napoleon who?

In this case, it’s Napoleon Brandy XO. Somewhere between 6 and 10 years old, depending on the source.

It has had plenty of time to breathe, let the tasting begin. My porcine friend is hiding a thumb drive so he doesn’t get any.

The brandy was purchased for our oldest son who recently turned 34. We really weren't after the brandy but its container was awesome.

We had the same thought. I had never seen anything like it.

Unfortunately, the picture didn't turn out as nicely as I would have liked but you certainly got the idea. Thank you for stopping by for a look.

He did and plans on putting something like colorful beads or something inside.

I thought that he could put some other kind of alcohol in it but that would just increase the possibilty of something happening to that pretty dragon. We shall see.

Thanks for popping in.

Had I thought about it Joe, I would have opted for a less busy background. It really is a work of art.

I liked it. It was smooth, and put in something like a brandy snifter, it has a pleasant smell and taste. Alex however, still thinks that it smells of vinegar and wants to turn its container into a bead depository.

I’m not sure but I will take a picture of whatever it does turn into because the dragon is drop-dead gorgeous. I was lazy and did not give it a proper presentation. I will keep you posted.
