Cognac Frapin – XO VIP Grand Champ. 1er Cru 70 cl. 40%

Cognac Frapin V.I.P-X.O. (Extra Old Quality) comes exclusively from “Grande Champagne”. As a result of Frapin’s large 1. Cru land holdings, only Cognac is used, which is also classified as 1. Cru for this Cognac. It is composed of Cognac of widely varying ages. Here you use e.g. some of the oldest cognacs from the family’s ‘Reserve’ – some are over 100 years old, aged in casks made from oak trees from the Limousin forests, which lie a good 100 km away. from the estate. This oak tree has a very low content of tanning oxygen, and it is, among other things, remained in disse limousin-fade, which helps to give this 1. Cru du Cognac its exquisite and elegantly rounded taste. V.I.P-X.O. is absolutely one of the best Cognacs from Frapin with lots of fullness and finesse and at the same time a rare fruit bouquet and a charming softness. It offers nuances of jammed fruits (apricot, orange, plum), dried fruits (walnuts, hazelnuts), dark chocolate, coffee, exotic wood and the characteristic ‘rancio’ character, which only appears in very old cognac. presented in a very exclusive glass carafe – a reproduction of the one used for Cognac in the 16th century. – and packed in a nice gift box.
