A classic VSOP cognac, this is matured for between 8 and 12 years in a selection of Troncais and Limousin oak barrels.
The Courvoisier brandy used in this bottling is sourced from the two premier regions of Cognac - the Grande Champagne and the Petite Champagne regions.
Whole coffee beans, mint leaves, kumquat, and red grape notes appear at first. Give it a minute and more savoury elements appear, with hints of buttered brown bread and a little whiff of sawdust.
More coffee notes as it opens (this would be a really good partner to espresso after a big meal). Develops touches of brown sugar, waxy apple peels, sweet pea, and a fragrant oakiness.
Ooh, a nice waft of almost-smoky cinnamon on the finish. Slowly becomes sweeter with fresh pear and gummy bears.

Surprisingly sweeter and fruitier than expected. Very smooth even neat. Would buy again.
lovely bottle of Cognac when you first pour you get a really strong smell of the alcohol content which is quite off putting but the taste is so smooth . good to drink neat or with mixers.
I was surprised and excited to hear I had been chosen to review the vsop cognac. This is a premium product and definitely a luxury I do not often have. I shared a small shot with my dad and we commented in the vanilla note. Instant warming and different tastes. Did not pick up the Fruity notes or Gingerbread notes mentioned though. The aroma when opening was a little maybe spicy. Would try with a cocktail as a mixer next time. Happy to have tried this and definitely will be using in cooking and drinks.
Although Cognac is not my regular tipple I do enjoy one of an evening or in a brandy sour. This one is by far my favourite, it is lovely and smooth, has a good depth of flavour and is perfect either on it's own or in a cocktail.
The box and bottle for the Cognac looks very luxe and fits in well to my mini bar with its beautiful colour. I have tried this neat and with a mixer. It is very sweet smelling and very rich, but smooth tasting. It is the perfect drink for my weekends. It feels very warming too, likely due to the spice undertone. I'd definitely recommend this and certainly would buy it for a special occasion or gift.
