Courvoisier L'Essence Cognac

Since its creation in 1809 Courvoisier has crafted cognacs to be rich and sophisticated to ignite the senses and give reason to celebrate. Inspired by innovation, ingenuity, and elegance, it is our joie de vivre that has put Courvoisier at the heart of celebrations worldwide. Courvoisier XO is a selection by our Master Blender of beautifully matured eaux de vie, aged from 11 to 25 years, to highlight the complexity and richness of cognac aromas. The finished product is intensely aromatic and flavorful, with a velvety texture and aromatic bouquet, laced with hints of cr me br l e, candied orange and iris flower

The nose starts with an 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, licorice, dried plum, and apricot, all full-bodied and rich, build to a smoldering intensity that lingers on the palate seemingly forever.
