Premium X.O.

X.O./Luxury: (X.O., extra old) A minimum of six years aging for the youngest cognac in the blend, with the average age running 20 years or older. All Cognac houses maintain inventories of old vintage Cognacs to use in blending these top of the line brands. The oldest Cognacs are removed from their casks in time and stored in glass demijohns (large jugs) to prevent further loss from evaporation and to limit excessively woody and astringent flavors. Luxury Cognacs are the very finest Cognacs of each individual Cognac house.

Hennessy X.O.

Description:
In 1870, X.O. was created by Hennessy for the personal use of Mr. Maurice Hennessy, his family and freinds.

Over a century later, this blend of more than one hundred very old "Eau-de-Vie" from Cognac's finest growing regions, carefully nurtured in cellars which contain the worlds largest reserves of old Cognac, remains the reference, 'The Original'.

Remi Martin (Coeur De Cognac)
Description:
Coeur de Cognac translated as 'The heart of Cognac' has enticing notes of ripe summer fruits with the promise of incredibly smooth sensations.



In order to achieve notes of ripe fruit, over half of the eaux de vie were selected from Remy Martin own private estates, the heart of the heart of Cognac. These vineyards are noted for their particularly mild climate and chalky soil and produce almost perfect growing conditions to deliver the fruitiest of eaux de vies and produces delicious a cognac taste, similar to savouring a ripe summer peach.

With Coeur de Cognac, Remy Martin has used a different distillation process, which is particularly gentle and slow, which enables the master distiller to both capture the fruitiest notes and deliver this wonderful smoothness.

Martell Noblige

Description:
Martell Noblige is so distinct it has created a whole new reference point in the Cognac category 'Qualite Superieur' that finds its place a step above VSOP's.

Noblige's dark copper hue, pear and lemon nose and smooth, floral taste are the result of combining a greater share of eau-de-vies from the famed Borderies growing area and aging the superior blend in new "noble" fine-grained oak barrels.

The sleek, sensuous bottle and label offer the first hint of the exquisite product inside. Noblige's contemporary design combines subtle elegance with breakthrough innovation in which the crystal clear glass magnifies the Cognac's vibrant hues.

Martell is the oldest of the four major Cognac Houses and is world renowned for creating the broadest range of superior Cognacs, concludes Domond.

Noblige is an extraordinary Cognac and a perfect fit for the Martell family.
