XO pays homage to the Cognac region with carefully selected eaux-de-vie. The signature style of rich fruit notes reveals an exquisitely layered blend with an elegant floral finish.

Tasting Notes:

Beginning: The delicate yet rich fruit notes of fig, raisin, plum, and candied orange reveal an exquisitely layered and matured blend.

Middle: An autumn bouquet with distinct notes of Iris.

End: The eaux-de-vie are matured in proprietary barrels using complex aging techniques, for notes of crme brle and a long finish.

“The influence of the Borderies shines through on the nose, with a honeyed floral bouquet highlighted by violets. The palate is velvety, and somewhat oily, with candied orange peel, vanilla, and blackberries, shifting towards the back with bitter notes of cacao and pistachio shells. The finish offers menthol and spicy, astringent oak, along with dark chocolate-covered raspberries.” – Jake Emen,Distiller
