Courvoisier L'Essence Cognac
Maison Courvoisier is known to be the best Cognac house in the world since Napoleon Bonapare’s times, and it seems to only get better and better each year, receiving more prestigious awards as they go. L'Essence Cognac was the last expression of the house's fifth master blender Jan-Marc Olivier before he passed his reigns over to Patrice Pinet. Considered a jewel in the collection, L’Essence is a blend of over 100 extremely rare cognac reserves from Champagne and Borderies crus, some of them dating back to the early 1900s, and each one of them celebrated as the most innovative of their time. This is a sublime harmony of flavors, a taste of luxury and riches that is unmatched by anything you’ve ever tasted before. The bottles themselves are worthy of the precious liquid inside: each one is equipped with a hand-sculpted Baccarat crystal decanter that was inspired by a style of ring Napoleon used to give to his soldiers.
Tasting Notes
On the nose, it is powerful, yet delicate, with notes of sandalwood and flower blossoms. On the palate, this precious cognac starts with notes of sandalwood cigar leaves, and flower blossoms, followed by toffee, marzipan, and sweet fresh honey. The finish is full-bodied and delicate with notes of licorice, dried plums, and apricots.
