enhanced by creamy vanilla and toasty brioche notes

The nose reveals intense and lifted aromatics of sarsaparilla

complex and deeply rewarding — a nose of outstanding personality and genuine distinction that reflects Jean and Guilhem Grosperrin’s extraordinary ability to identify and secure the most atypical and characterful eaux-de-vie from the cellars of Cognac’s vine growers

Silky smooth with a hint of sweetness and vanilla on the palate

The finish is chocolaty firm with plenty of liquorice and long

The palate is well-balanced and medium-bodied
