The Matre de Chai, Michel Casavecchia, meticulously hand-selects the rarest eaux-de-vie some of which have rested for years in the cellars of the Chateau de Cognac to craft the unique blend of DUSS XO Cognac. Aged a minimum of ten years, the eaux-de-vie rest in French oak barrels to ensure the utmost complexity and depth in flavor. DUSS XO Cognac delivers rich notes of ripe blackberry and apricot, layered with hints of dark chocolate and walnut, culminating in an exceptionally balanced finish. DUSS XO is best enjoyed neat but can also be the delicious key ingredient in many premium cocktails.
