Why Liquor Geeks recommends it
This is an XO Cognac from France's Cognac region, distilled from Ugni Blanc grapes and blended from carefully selected aged eaux-de-vie into a rich, deep amber spirit. The nose opens on dried apricot and raisin, then vanilla, toasted oak and a delicate floral thread. The palate brings honey, caramel, gentle spice and a subtle nuttiness, with a long, warm finish that leaves a touch of dried-fruit sweetness. At 40% ABV, it is approachable enough for someone stepping up to their first XO, yet layered enough to reward slow sipping from a tulip glass after dinner. It also has range. It sits comfortably beside dark chocolate, aged cheeses or a medium-bodied cigar, and it makes a plush, fruit-forward Cognac Old Fashioned. We carry it because it delivers the classic XO profile of dried fruit, honeyed sweetness and seasoned oak in a bottle that suits both celebrations and quiet evenings. It also gives our cognac shelf an expressive, easy-to-love option.
Pairs well with
- High-quality dark chocolate — The cognac's dried-fruit character and spice complement the richness of dark chocolate.
- Aged cheeses, nuts, dried fruit — Its honeyed caramel sweetness and subtle nuttiness echo the nuts and dried fruit while contrasting the savory depth of aged cheese.
- After-dinner medium-bodied cigar — The layered notes of toasted oak, honey and spice offer a counterpoint to the tobacco's nuances.
