TheCognac

The fusion of younger and older cognacs gives Courvoisier_® VS a fruity, delicate taste and a bouquet filled with ripe fruit and spring flowers.

Ripe fruits: The chalky soil in Fins Bois delivers a hint of ripened fruits that is its signature aroma.

Spring Flowers: Inhale deeply for the bouquet of spring flowers, which is a hallmark of grapes harvested at their peak from the Fins Bois crus.

Fresh Oakiness: The rich, fresh oak bouquet is controlled throughout the ageing process to make sure it doesn’t dominate the young cognac.

This skillfully crafted cognac is a blend of several crus with a perfect balance between Fins Bois, Grande and Petite Champagnes at the peak of their aromatic potential.

Peach: When the cognac is distilled and aged, it begins to conjure the soft, luscious aroma of ripe peach.

Toasted almonds: After several years in our French fine-grained oak barrels, the spirit develops nutty notes and ages to produce a sweet, caramelized flavor resembling that of toasted almonds.

Jasmine: The distillation on the lees is a complex and meticulous process but it gives fruity and musk notes, evoking jasmine aroma.

Is intensely aromatic and flavourful, with a velvety texture and aromatic bouquet, laced with hints of crème brûlée, candied orange and iris floers.

Crème Brûlée: The careful hand toasting of our barrels lends notes of vanilla and caramel that mature to evoke a warm crème brûlée aroma.

Candied Orange: Delicate ageing in oak produces this sweet aroma that originates from the Grande Champagne crus.

Iris Flower: The sweet and powerful bouquet of irises comes from matured Borderies cognac.

The character of each individual note is shaped by its terroir, grape, cask and years of maturation.

Ginger cookies: The vines produce round and smooth eaux de vie which, after distillation on the lees, develop complex aromas with rich spicy notes.

Roasted coffee: When the coopers toast our oak casks, the charred surface not only helps the eaux-de-vie soak into the wood better, but also gives the spirit a sweet roasted flavour.

Dried plums: Deep, fruity flavours are produced in the second stage of ageing as eaux-de-vie from different crus start to fully mature with the lees retained from our meticulous distillation method.

Delicate and subtle cigar box bouquet, full-bodied and mellow, tender and stylish with a long-lingering fine memory.

Sandalwood: Born of the contact between cognac and barrel during ageing.

Mushroom: This aroma can be traced back to the humid conditions in our carefully monitored earth-floored warehouses, where the cognac ages.

Dried Apricot: Hailing from the distillation on the lees, this labor-intensive process produces a diverse array of sublime aromas and flavours.

This cognac contains eaux-de-vie primarily selected from the Borderies cru, which at 12 years old develop their best floral and spicy notes. These tasting are further enhanced by the combination of Fins Bois grapes to develop the vibrancy of Blend and Grande Champagnes eaux-de-vie that give underlying elegance and dept.

On the nose, notes of violets, orange blossoms quickly meld into spicy tasting of clove, ginger and star anise. Delicate vanilla completes the aromatic harmony.

On the palate, a luxury of almonds, raisins and orange marmalade are nurtured from the Grande Champagne eaux-de-vie.

This cognac contains the finest eaux-de-vie from the Grande Champagne cru, that have been aged for over two decades in hand selected Tronçais oak barrels. 21 years is the perfect time for these specific eaux-de-vie to develop their full richness and heightened aromatic style.

On the nose, the first notes are dried hazelnut, dried apricots and figs, followed slowly by notes of cocoa, honey and smooth spices like white pepper and coriander. The finish brings subtle notes of leather and fine cigar.

On the palate, the aromatic notes deepen into candied orange and gingerbread, leading to a smooth and voluptuous finish with exquisite depth that seems to go on forever.

Fragance start with humid forest and rich truffle aroma, then port wine and cedar wood, followed by spicy hints of hot fruit cake.

Truffles: Our ageing warehouses, with their humid conditions, develop over time, the exquisite aroma of truffles.

Hot Fruitcake: Deliciously evocative, this aroma is born of the maturation of the very old Borderies grapes at their absolute peak.

Old Port Wine: During the long ageing process, the volume of cognac gradually reduces, making it more concentrated. This gives it the ‘rancio’ aroma – earthy and mushroomy.

Succession_® J.S. is a blend to tantalize the senses, with rich notes of old sherry wine and cedar wood, with traces of Havana cigar leaf, crème brûlée and freshly roasted coffee, decadently finished with liquorice and hot honey.

On the palate, powerful, complex and mellow flavours play, each with a wonderfully long memory, an elegant and lingering finish of hot and velvety fruitcake.

L’Essence de Courvoisier_® is a precious cognac that will ignite the senses. The nose starts with exquisite tasting of sandalwood and cigar leaves, followed by toffee, marzipan and fresh honey and finished with the delicate perfume of early summer blossom.

On the palate, liquorice, dried plum and apricot, all full-bodied and rich, build to a smouldering intensity that lingers on the palate seemingly forever.
