Tasting Notes

The sensory journey of Courvoisier XO begins with its aroma, offering ripe fruit, caramel, and honey tinged with subtle oakiness. The first sip greets the palate with a harmonious interplay of flavors. Robust currents of crème brûlée, orange zest, and exotic spice interweave beautifully with the softer undertones of milk chocolate and blooming roses. The finish of Courvoisier XO is warm, spicy mocha and toasted almond notes, making each sip a captivating experience.

Production Notes

Courvoisier XO's production is as meticulous as it is intriguing. The process begins with the meticulous selection of ugni blanc grapes from the finest vineyards in the Grande and Petite Champagne crus. After double-distillation in copper stills, the resulting eaux-de-vie are aged for up to 35 years in French Limousin oak barrels. This long maturation process allows the cognac to develop its multi-layered complexity and signature smoothness. Courvoisier prides itself on its 'cruisability', a term coined by the house to describe the unique interplay between the time, terroir and craftsmanship, all crucial elements in creating Courvoisier XO Cognac.
