Courvoisier VSOP

Description

Since 1809, Courvoisier has meticulously and passionately handcrafted award-winning cognacs by combining two equally important ingredients – proven traditional techniques and a relentless drive to innovate. Loved by royals, celebrities, and artists over the years, this is a brand that has been making its mark on the world since its founding and will continue to do so in the future.

This VSOP Courvoisier Cognac is distilled from the finest grapes from the Grande Champagne and Petite Champagne with some Fins Bois crus of Cognac, matured in handpicked oak casks and blended by master blender Patrice Pinet. The Courvoisier VSOP cognac is matured for much longer than the Courvoisier VS in hand-selected oak casks. 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 a jasmine aroma.
